I emailed Whispersmom...Rini...I bet her or one of the breeders can tell you how to make a supplement to feed him ...You got some good advise but maybe there is something you can feed him that will help him get stronger ?

I wish I had something to offer but the best of luck to you and that little guy - he's so cute and I love lab puppies....

The mothers milk is a lot better for him and helps fight off diseases. Is there anyway you can keep doing what you are doing plus take him out to feed on the mom?

Would it be at all possible to bring all of them inside? I don't necessarily mean the house, but a sheltered place where you can protect him from drafts and keep him warm. Would mom allow him to be in a wee bag or sock to stay warm? If so, that would help some. If you are having to run outside during the cold, you are gonna get yourself run down so think about yourself too. If I had such a fragile child, I would do what I have read once and seen on TV--bring the baby inside and put it in your bosom. The movement resembles the motion in the mom's tummy and stimulates the baby. Plus, he will be close when you have to feed him. The person who did this BTW had cattle to feed and was described as well-endowed. She was highly admired by the interviewer and author. Heck, I would be impressed too.
Oh, my goodness. If my friends saw this, they would say "Rini, you could keep a whole litter in there!"..LOL
