Congrats on your new babies. Can't wait to see pics. Hope everything is ok now with the hotwater heater. |
well all the floors are having to come up and new flooring has to put down! i could pull my hair out right now!! puppies are doing good. i'm having to bottle feed them because trixie doesnt have any milk hardly. and the pups arent liking the bottle very well. i know after the puppies are born they can lose a littel weight and i'm weighing them to make sure they don't lose much. any suggestions on how to help trixie with her milk and how to get these puppies to suck from the bottle! i got a littel cc dropper and i am giving them milk that way too. |
Trixie needs fenugreek, go to the store and buy a bottle of Fenugreek, open one capsule and mix it with some soft caned puppy food and let her eat it all, she needs more milk, supplementing with goats milk is good, is a great recipe for puppy formula that you can syringe, if you use an insulin syringe the puppies will suck it up, you will be amazed how easy they learn to suck it from the syringe. hugs, ps, give her the fenugreek at least 3 times a day until milk starts flowing well, then you can give it to her twice until she weans.. |
thanks! i'm gonna pick some up on my way home today! |
Congrats on the puppies. Did you do a "clean out shot" with-in the first 24 hours which helps bring down the milk. And yes to the fenugreek, but you should be giving at least with each meal of soft puppy food until her milk comes in. |
Yes I took her to get the shot around 2 yesterday. She has a little milk now. I just worry the babies will not get enough. Trixie is doing very good. She is eating very good and seems like she is back to her old self! |
