 Puppies are Weaned but Mom still producing milk
Jade's puppies are now 7 weeks old - they are all healthy, happy puppies and are all doing great. The only issue is that even though the puppies are fully weaned - Jade is still producing milk. We are trying our best to keep them from nursing at all - which is not always easy because they smell the milk and she is not good at telling them "no" so we have to step in. I have cut back her diet to her pre-pregnancy diet but she is still producing milk. How long does it take to "dry up"? Does anyone have any advice? I tried withholding food from her like I had read somewhere else on here but then I had issues with her trying to get into my other dogs' food and the puppy food. Is there any other way to help her to stop producing milk? |
