Re: How long should I give my puppy 'Puppy Milk' ?

Puppy Milk is special milk for puppies you can buy in Super Stores (I get mine in Tesco). Its in little blue cartons Healthy Liquid Boost For Your Puppy

It is mostly made up with goats milk but is specially formulated by vets apparently. I give him it watered down a little with Weetabix in the morning, then give him the 'Pedigree Chum' puppy meat (sachets) thereafter... mixed up with some puppy milk and water. He loves it. But I'm not gonna spoil him with it so like I said he'll be getting it for another week and thats it.

My lad is 3 years old and he still has goats milk occasionally.

I gave my lad two milky meals a day when he was a pup and gave him normal puppy food for two meals and plenty of fresh water. He weaned himself off his milky meals, just turned his nose up at it.

Re: How long should I give my puppy 'Puppy Milk' ?

I am a student Veterinary Nurse and we tell clients not to give their pups milk,
as soon as they are weened off their mum they can have water. aslong as they are eating well and putting on a suffiecient amount of weight.
Many breeders tell you to give them puppy milk or goats milk but really its not very good for them so try and get your pup off it asap really. It wont cause the pup any harm to have the milk but its not that good for them really.

This one was posted more than a year ago so if they're still feeding their puppy on puppy milk I would be very surprised

Peace
