Sub-Qing is not that difficult, after you get over the initial reluctance of putting a needle to something so small. You'll administer directly under the skin and between the neck and shoulder area....but, it does give a pup the chance to build up strength so, that it can nurse. You may not need it, but you can never be too prepared.
