YT 2000 Club Member | Question about nutrical I have a question , if you need to use Nutrical, how often do you give it to them? I was not sure how often it can be given when it's needed. |

| I think it is good for small puppies, sick or recovering adults, traveling..but I do not give it to my girls as a routine suppliment..even thought Becca is quite small, she eats like a horse. |

| Help small puppy! My Mia had a litter of 6 yesterday the smallest weighs 2.1oz and the biggest weighs 5 oz . They already have been to see the vet and he put the two li'l ones on puppy formula to supplement what ever else they get from mom. My only concern is he is so small the other 5 push him out of the weigh and I have also be giving him the bottle but I do not know how much to expect him to eat at one sitting. They go in again for tail docking on friday but I just want to make sure he is eating. Thanks to everyone in advance |

YT 2000 Club Member | I am asking because my mother's 3 year old Yorkie had an episode and need it. She asked me if I knew how often to give because she has an eye problem and needed cornea transplant , she cant read the small print and I am at home. I do not drive due to seizure disorder or else I would go read the box/tube. I was looking it up for her so she wont worry. She used it before but she perked right up and did not need another dose. She used it about an hour ago if that helps. I have not bought this yet because I wont get my little boy till December. I am hoping that dad gets home soon so she will not worry to much! |

YT 2000 Club Member | She will get like this evry once in a while because she skips eating even though it is out for her 24/7. My mom said that her mouth gets almost whitis pink and she does not want to play at all. She rushed her to the ER vet when she first did this when she was a puppy and they told her to get Nutrical. She keeps it in the fridge at all times for her is she needs it thankfully she alway's perked up after getting it. This time she is still "Acting funny" is how my mom worded it to me. |

YT 2000 Club Member | She put a call into the vet and is waiting for a call back, I thought that you could give it 3 x a day if needed for some reason, but I don't know. I thought someone would know the proper spacing. I told her I was having no luck hear at this site so she called the vet. Thanks in advance to anyone who replies. |
