I've been giving them private nursing time, and they all latch on for awhile anyway. I've also been supplementing them after nursing with Esbilac. But they keep dropping weight. I've only been supplementing about every 3-4 hours -- not every 2 hours. What do you think?? (I've just never had puppies that lost weight!). 
when would you use the liver remedy??
Thanks. Glad everyone's puppies are doing so well. |
Katelin. Almost all puppies lose weight the first day...even if its just a few grams.
Keep working with yellow the most and I'd supplement them every 2 hours. Till they get the hang of it more.
Noooo I dont think you need the liver remedy yet.,
Maybe someone else will come along thats knows better.
And I'm glad Sweetie is doing good..
