They do not like the bottles but only lick small amounts of the milk supplement out of a small dessert dish. I went a baught it the second you told me to today. They are doing well with the pedigree canned puppy food with the milk supplement mixed in it. Is that OK? I am so scared that I am going to do something wrong. I am blending the dry food a little to much because I am mortified that they may choke on it. Thanks so much.

Please feel free to copy the information. It will be fine to mix the milk supplement with the canned Pedigree Puppy food. I have been weaning my Yorkie pups on the ground puppy food for 4 years and have never had one choke. You do want it ground very fine; I alway sift out the big pieces. I like to use the small double bowls they sell at Wal-mart. I put the dry food in both sides and then I have another double bowl for the water. You want to make sure you leave water down also. If you can just make it through this next week I think you will find that it will get easier. Please keep us posted on how things are going. Again, I am so sorry for your loss.
