When I posted the message I researched for a while and found a recipe for formula that helped another yorki owner. I went to jewel at midnight and purchased everything I needed. By the time i mixed it, it was too late. He was stiff and cold and I tried to revive him but couldn't. I cried for about an hour. He was only one day and a couple hours old. I don't know how people bear with losing children because I know I will be sad for a long time about this little puppy. I have 4 more, 2 girls and 2 boys. one boy and one girl are also pretty small but they are eating mommy's milk. I was up until now..3:30 am....to make sure they all ate. the smallest girl which im also worried about is eating, but i have to help her out finding the nipple. She sucked on it for about 30 mins...is that normal??? Now she's sleeping. I hope that the rest of these little sweeties will be healthy. I'm so sad though.
