I have a litter of 5 born 9/13. All healthy and thriving except for 1 little guy who weighed 4.5 oz at birth, then went to 3.4 by the next evening. Took him to my vet who checked for cleft and that's not the problem. He showed me how to tube feed and after Esbilac, then a couple of goat milk recipies, he's on undiluted goat's milk, whole milk yogurt, egg yolk and tsp. of Karo mixture. Just started that at 2 pm today.
Is this live remedy to be feed alone or can it be supplemented with something else such as the above recipe? He's been at 3.8 oz for two days, but like I said, I just started this more enriched recipe this afternoon. I've just heard of this beef liver remedy this afternoon from another yorkie show person (such as myself). Thanks, Lin
