You might also want to get some instant glucose powder. You should be able to get it at Walgreens. Also uncolored hummingbird mix contains an instant sugar. The body can utilize this form of sugar faster than table sugar or Karo. Many won't feed a weak puppy formula because they believe if the sucking reflex is not there then the proper intestinal contractions are not there either. They just feed the glucose water until he is strong enough to have a sucking reflex. When you place your finger in the pup's mouth does he latch on at all?
