| Pedigree Puppy packets. Are they any good. Lily's got eslipsey. and well is eating good. mostly. Just I'm worried her teeth are so darn tiny. I don't think she can yet eat dry. {my vet swears she's not yet four weeks old. spent last night with her at the ER Vet's office. cause she chained sezied on me.} So I'm honestly wondering about her food. sigh. I love her,don't want to lose her. right now I keep with her with me twenty/four seven. Needing help here. sigh |

| how did you get a puppy so young? their teeth won't reall start to come through until about 8 weeks i think..but you could wet the dry food a little to make it mooshy to eat but i don't think purina is all that good of a food get some nutrical also puppys can get hypoglycemic..low blood sugar good luck! |

| Yikes! Boil some chicken and cut it up very fine and be sure to have nutrical. You might want to get some puppy formula for all I know. That's awfully young. I don't know what stores you have available there, but I think even Wal-Mart carries puppy formula. Let us know how she's doing. That's pitiful.

| grrrr...who would release a less than four week old pup! I usually wean on a mixture of goats milk and ground dry Bil Jac puppy food soupy at first getting pastier as they get the hang of drinking water and chewing... slowly switching to the Bil Jac dry. It dissolves quickly so they can't choke on it if they don't chew it well before swallowing. You can also supplement with baby rice cereal and baby food turkey/chicken. Feedings at 7am, 12pm, 5pm, 10pm.

| Lily's doing fine. right now we're adding karo to her water in a tiny amount. Nutrical off my finger and are just giving her right now straight boiled chicken with a small amount of white rice. funny thing is her teeth are sort in just bare tiny white nubbs you can see if you really look. the ER vet says she's that young,but I know the person who has both Mom and Da and the rest of the litter is 8 weeks old. so how can Lily be so much younger? not possible. anyway free puppy, three days,$450. in vet bills,and endless love priceless. No such thing as free. but like the card comerical she's worth it. |
