I said maybe it was to use Karo for hypoglycemia. But the sister says no, it was to use it everyday. I can't imagine that being right but I told my friend I would ask the experts. So, what do you think? |
The puppy should be on Goat's Milk with equal parts of distilled water and Gerber's baby rice cereal...mixed to a watery texture.........
Not knowing what state you live in the breeder may have broken the law as some states prohibit the sale of pups until 8 weeks of age......should this pup contract parvo/rabies the breeder may be held responsible too.....as in some states there are lemon laws.
No Karo Syrup or Nutri Cal as a hyperglycemic prevention....both can contribute to sugar diabitis or can contribute to a hyperglycemic attack by using it as a prevention.
