A few litters back I had put down a bit of cottage cheese for mom (pups not yet 2 weeks of age but, crawling around, but eyes not open). I walked in and there was one pup just lapping on mom's cottage cheese..... |
Just finding my way back to this thread... I have very limited experience -- so I bow to your wisdom with the cottage cheese and the Benebac. I still have notes I made before when you recommeneded Benebac. So, I do listen but not sure I will everput any of this to good use again or not. I won't say never, that's for sure. I get too much pleasure out of even reading about newborn pups like yours who sought out the cottage cheese. I can just see a little pup with it's eyes still closed, following their little nose to the prize! A few laps at a cottage cheese curd!
Ahhhh.... there is nothing like those little pups!
