Re: Help with Fading puppy
She is near me here in Telford Shropshire, she has no problem with the mum and milk she has load and the other two pupies are thriving, as was the bitch until yesterday evening, I went round about 9.30pm and the last time she had suckled was at 7pm and she just wasn;t interested in suckiling at all although she was happy to drink the life aid out of the syringe all be it very slowly and only a ml of it as I didn't want to throw to much of it down her to soon, she seemed a little livelier when I left last night at 10.30pm ie: crawling round the bed abit more and have a little gumbl which was very cute to see, as she kept doing alittle elvis impersantion with her lip and making little growly noises, also when she was taking the life adi she was padding me as she would do if she was suckling off mum, she seemed a little dehydrated last night but not to severe so I am hoping that giving her the life aid last night will of helped her pick back up enough to suckle again.
I will let you all know what is happening with her. take care Sarah |

Re: Help with Fading puppy
UPDATE:
I have spoken to my firen this morning, she is waiting for the vet to finish their morning surgary and sh is going to give her a ring back, the pup has made it through the night thank goodness, she said the life aid has been fab and that the pup no longer feels dehydrated and her skin isn't staying up anymore and is bouncing back as it should, she said she has much more life in her this morning and has had a little suckle form mum early this morning and has also dranks a couple ml's of milk from a syringe too, she hasn't lost anymore weight so hopefully we got to her in time, She is going to ring me again later to lt me know what the vet says to do next with her. take care Sarah |

Re: Help with Fading puppy
I had a fading pup and shes absolutely fine now. I took her from mum for two days a fed her with LACTOL. She was very weak and could'nt hold onto teat but she did very well on the formula. After two days she was suckling like hell again. Hope the little one is still ok??

Re: Help with Fading puppy
As I said my vet spoke to our vet her vet is mine too, and she said that me giving her the life aid had saved her and pulled her through, she thinks that the other two pups are pushing her off the milk bar, and that she had possibly missed a coupe of feeds because of this and my friend had just not noticed it, which is easy to do, she said to put her on seperatly to the other two pups, with the life aid inbetween feeds with mum, and if she wishes just to get her back up to size to hand feed her inbetween feeds, which is what she is doing for the rest of today to see how the little dot does.
My friend is going to ring me again later to let me know how she is doing, so I will let you all know. take care Sarah |

Re: Help with Fading puppy
Puppy is doing well she has put over an ounce back on in weight so we are much happier, her mum is keeping a very close eye on her, and is making sure she is getting on the milk bar either before or after the boys are done. Her mum said she is a little fighter and give as good as she gets with the two boy pups, she is back to squirming around and squeaking with good strong lungs.
Thanks for everyones help with this and thanks Crazycrest for pming me. take care Sarah |
