you need to get them hydrated...I would take them to the vet ASAP and have sub-q fuilds injected. Dehydration is the quickest way to lose another one...
They need to be latched every two hours if not fed every two hours by bottle or syringe and kept warm, never feed a cold pup that can kill then too!
best of luck
| Totally agree....docking tails in 24 hours may not have caused excessive blood loss....but, it does shock their system....
Take a look at Hannah's Story be told in the Breeder's section.....speaks about Sub-Qing the pup....with the recipe someone else posted in this thread.....if you can't get the pup to nurse...hydration maybe necessary to keep the pup going until it is strong enough to latch on....Syringe feeding as demonstrated in the thread mentioned is an excellent way to keep the pup strong.....Also, mentioned is fading puppy recipe....liver, and Nutridrops....this pup must be kept from getting chilled, and you must remember to give forumula at room temp. |
