Worried, Couldn't find any NutraCal

[LazyDaisy]

How long of a flight will your new pup have? Could the breeder that you are getting your baby send some with (like in a care package?)

I might just buy some Karo syrup then since it appears to be easier to find and works just as well. Thanks for the tips!

Congratulations!! I know how excited you must be. My vet recommended only using the "Vet formula" Nutri-Cal for our Toto. It's actually a "high calorie palatable dietary supplement" and after over five years, we still always keep a tube on hand. If your baby shows signs of hypoglycemia, the gums will appear pale and not the healthy pink and they appear to have no energy [lethargic]. It also suppliments and helps their appetite, especially during the transition to a new home, new parents, etc. Good luck!
