I tried tub feeding one time it was so scarey to do, it was the middle of the night pup was only 2days old, all I had was yt to help me I had been up for 30 hrs trying to save her. But she died anyway. I thought I got it in her lungs, I said never again but I found out later I did everything right she was jsut too far gone.Still it is easy to get the tube down the wrong way if your not careful .. at least thats what my vet said. I have never tried it again.I don't even breed anymore now but this thread comes in my eamils still. Tubing is the surest way to know thay are getting food with a sick pup I found out later on. Welcome to yt by the way I see you are new. I hope you like it here, I have learned a lot here and there are some really great breeders here too. Thay sure helped me out in the wee hours of the morning. Blessings
