Here is what I am doing per the vet....
Mom gets this mixture 3 times a day with 1 cupof her normal dry dog food.
She has unlimited water (water feeder)
1/2 cup evaporated milk (never use whole milk, it can cause diarrhea and dehydration)
1/2 cup boiled water-cooled
1 tsp of karo syrup
1 tablespoon of plain yogurt
1 drop of a pediatric multivitamin
2 raw egg yolks
I/we are bottle feeding the pups twice a day the same mixure to take relief off of momma.
Now in reading, I have seen these things (HAVE NOT DONE THEM)
Give the mother yorkie 2 tablespoons of cottage cheese for the calcium twice a day.
Smash up a childrens vitamin (ie. Flintstone's) and give to mom 1x a day |
There is a recipe somewhere for whelping pudding.
You vets advice is probably good but generic. If one of the breeders on here gives you a recipe, I would go with that. Your vet knows dogs, They know yorkies. I have heard evaporated goats milk is better than evaporated cows milk.
