Hi Breny,
How is your lil cleft palate girl doing? I wish I would have noticed this thread alot earlier. Hope she is thriving.
Here is a thread about my cleft palate boy
http://www.yorkietalk.com/forums/sho...t=cleft+palate
The link to henwood.com in it is what helped me during the crucial handfeeding part.
SO happy she has been doing well so far, I know from experience it takes a ton of work to raise them. You get sooooooo attached too.
My Joker is doing great, you would never know now he was a problem by watching him zoom everywhere. He just now is eating dry food, he couldnt for a long time even though the henwood website recommended dry only. He just didnt have the teeth to do it.
Joker is over 3 months now and is a live wire!!!!!! He is just extra small at 19 ozs.
He used to have severe hypoglycemic attacks and I started him on a "milkshake" Just formula in a cup with honey mixed in and he lapped it up, of course he couldnt really do this until he was 7 to 8 weeks. But every morning I did this, and somedays I still do and he never had another attack. He really gained weight too. He also was offered canned food 3 times aday. But Im trying to wean him to dry now since he is doing so well. He likes his milkshake though!!!!!!!!!!! Try it on your girl when she can lap from a cup. It made all the difference in the world for Joker.
If I can be of any assistance, plz dont hesitate to contact me. Im no expert but I would be glad to help in anyway if I can.
