[devonmaid]

im in devon which is a shame i have 2 bitches with only four pops each .so they could manage more and also i have my other girl who dutifully produced a phamton ,lol just in case and is desperate for some pups to feed

 

[lawleymoon]

jusy rang my friend with the pups there doing ok with bottle feeding so far they have a good rota going -_- i do hope these pups will be ok its so upsetting they lost shadow( mum) she was a lovely gentle deer hound

RIP SHADOW :huggles: please keep your fingers crossed for her babbies :luck:

 

[Macha]

sorry to hear this

In case they are still going to need help with bottle-feeders, how about contacting any local rescue group which might know suitable volunteers?

Cross-species suckling might be a possibility also ;it might be worthwhile contacting farmers or zoos? Though I heard of pups suckled by a sow (pig) who contracted a disease from her. About a year ago a newspaper published a photo of a canine nursing tiger cubs!

 

[jeanyg]

So sad...wished I lived closer I'd be over like a shot :- "

 

[kris]

thats really sad news.can they get a vet or vet nurse to show them how to tube feed?much quicker and easier too with a large litter :thumbsup: just make sure the tube is in the tummy and not the air passageways before putting the milk in.a vet should be able to show you how to do it.

 

[melanie]

thats so sad, RIP Shadow

iv got everything crossed for the puppies :luck:

 

[fatwhippet]

i am fairly close in wolverhampton, but have never done any bottle feeding of pups before ( only guinea pigs, baby birds and other small animals) if i can help in anyway please contact me.

good luck to all the pups and i am so sorry for the loss of Shadow.

 

[beaker]

if i lived closer i'd happily lend my expert puppy bum cleaner,

:luck: :luck: :luck: lots of luck :luck: :luck: :luck:
