We get news paper from recyling to.!
But we always have puppy milk in incase dams milk drys up or rejects a pup there no time to waste if you need to hand rear a couple of days old pups.!

We like to bring our pups up on the best possible food and that does not come cheap, also like you say injections arent cheap for a litter of pups as well as a trip to get mother and litter checked over.!
If every thing is done rightly you loss more money that you could gain imo
