I am surprised that after an episode of calcium deficiency that the vet has allowed the puppies to nurse at all. When a breeder friend of mine had a female that had eclampsia the vets told her to bottle feed the pups as the mom would continue to have the issue and it is fatal if not caught and treated early on. I suggest you bottle feed the babies if the cannot lap the milk yet. I would wean mom at this point because each time them pups nurse they continue to deplete calcium from her body. Bottle feed the pups until they learn to lap the milk or in 1 week they can begin the puppy mush (goats milk, baby rice cereal mixture) |
