Got a gyp that has 8 pups and they pulling her down bad.  Friend of mine said use some calf milk powder form.   I went and got some earlier and thinking on trying it.   Its unimilk powder form.  Mix with water.     What are yalls thoughts on this situation?

The mama dog loses lots of water and nutrients thru feeding pups...to replace the loss the mama needs lots of food and plenty of water in front of her...feed her at least twice a day...not only will it help the mom but the pups will have more milk for extra nutrition...

Training dogs is not about quantity, it's more about timing, the right situations, and proper guidance...After that it's up to the dog...

mix the milk reolacer with water per instructions and add to the gyp's feed . i like to feed my gyp's moistened feed during nursing it doesn't pull the gyp's down so bad it takes alot of water to make milk .. at 3 weeks i start the pups on a puppy feed milk replacer . mix it wet till it's kinds soupy at first . sooner the pups start filling up on it the better for the gyp .

i had a gyp hang herself and left 7 pups when they were 3 1/2 wks old. i used milk replacer for the first wk and then started mixing it with puppy food and kept it in front of them and let them eat all they wanted. i kept 2 and they are doing great and from the info ov gottn from the other 2 guys who the rest, they are doing great too. keep the replacer, feed and water in front of here and let her have all she can eat.

K9 Puppy Gold is the best supement for dogs I've seen. Momma's will gain weight and pups will grow. But its high $...
