i need help? I bought dark karo syrup, because i ran out of nurtri-cal i also had codliver oil which is in nurti-cal so i've mix both karo- syrup and gave it too coby.. is this ok too use? also i read on line creamy peanutbutters ok for small puppies as well too keep them from going into Hypoglycemia, can someone please confirm this as being true or false ? also i dont know how much karo syrup to give too coby , during the day ...he 's putting on some weight and i don't believe for a minute he's 1.72 LBS anymore .. i need to have him weigh dose anyone know where i can take him too get weigh? besides the vets i'm sure their find a way too charge for something so small.. like weighing a pet, and let not forget their charge for the visit... i was thinking mybe petco might be willing too just weigh him... |
I have only heard of giving the clear karo syrup. Id be afraid the cod liver oil would give loose stools. If Petco has a scale Im sure they'd weigh your baby. Maybe someone else can give you better advise about the dark karo and cod liver oil. |
You can always use Honey. |
I would stay away from the peanutbutter - for the same reason that human babies can't have it until one year old - they could choke because the peanutbutter is sticky and hard for them to swallow. |
You can buuy a kitchen scale at a walmart or store like that fairly inexpensive to get a good idea of the weight. |
ok i'll do that then |
dark karo could make loose stools too. I just put light karo in their water. Is he a good eater? You could try goatsmilk and baby rice cereal. The canned goats milk. 1 part milk to 1 part water |
Isnt Coby going to the vet every few weeks anyways? Laci got all her shots a few weeks apart, they weighed her each time!! If your going to run into petco to have Coby weighed you could get some nutrical there its fairly inexpensive!! |
If you have a local TSC, they will weigh him for you. |

If you have a scale at home, you can weigh yourself, then hold Coby and weigh again. Subtract his weigh from yours...that should give you a good idea. I hope Coby is ok.:) |
my vets close on weds and coby not due in until like oct for kennle cough is his next vac other then that he was up too date oh his vacc i i was just wondering about what karo syrup too use so i guess clear would be better,, the nurti-cal dosnt last |
yes hes eating well now and he feels like his putting on some weight hes 12 weeks now do i need to continue the nutrical .. my vet never told me too use it the broker company told me too use it...the vet just said too feed coby every 4 hrs when he was sick im free feeding him now hes eating good i took him off baby food .. he eats puppy food now.. i did notice after he was on powder goatmilk he started putting on weight in two days i only did the goat milk for a week then i took him off because was getting big fast..and someone on here stated dont give it too him too much because it'll cause health problems |

The thing about weighing on your own scale is you may be 115 lb 2 oz and the pup may be 2 lbs 8 oz, so the scale may round off and say total 118 when in all reality Yorkie wait does make a difference in ounces to really keep track of them. JMO. I just found a scale on ebay for under $20 free ship and it can weigh a whole back of fruit...up to 11 lbs. So I can use it for multiple things and I'm sure I will. I think I'm gonna Buy it now, I'm looking to make sure no one on YT has one before I do though. Hugs and Kisses everyone! |
if you have a pets mart with a banfield you can weigh him thear for free just askwhen gatsby was really little i take the bowl off the kitchen scale and sit him on hold a treat above his head so he would stay and that worked until he got he got to long to sit without hanging off |
