Does it matter ? It is good info.
Tube feed should be done with care, even Vets have be know kill a pup by tubing.
1. Put the tube in the lungs and you will asperate the pup
2. Inserting a tube wrong and you can punture the lung or stomach.
3. If you don't pinch off the tube before inserting you can asperate the pup.
4. If you don't pinch off the tube before you pull it out you can asperate the pup.
5. If you give to much you can asperate the pup
6. Feed a chilled pup and the fluid set in the stomach and kills the pup
7. Pups lose the the desire to suckle when tube feed.
Done right and you can save a pups life, do it wrong and you can kill a pup quick.
