Title: Dog help Post by: ferris tx on July 18, 2014, 01:46:04 pm Got a gyp that had pups. Had to take pups off yesterday they sucked her dry she wasn't producing no more milk. Pups r fine and look good but she's looking poor and boney. Any other liquid besides water to get her moving better. She eats and has water so that ain't the issue

Title: Re: Dog help Post by: ferris tx on July 18, 2014, 05:49:14 pm Pups 5 weeks old all ready eating on there own they don't have to b nursed anymore jus need info to help her get back up to par. Not worked about milk and pus as I mentioned
Title: Re: Dog help Post by: halfbreed on July 18, 2014, 07:10:25 pm ok ferris I'd leave the pups off of her and give her all she wants to eat , be sure and worm her good and I all ways put my gyps on three days of amoxycillen when I pull pups off to avoid any mamory infections or any others for that matter . anti-biotics after they whelp and after they wean . a good doggy brand multi vitamin to replace what the pups took out of her . if she's worm free and no infections she should bounce back pretty quick .

I totally agree...feeding double or more and plenty of water is for bitches that are feeding pups that are not weaned...
