    It's challenging taking care of these pups. My mama Chihuahua died 3dsys after giving birth to 5 babies. I have been bottle feeding for over 3 wks to all of them. I'm very tired. But I promised the mama dog I will take care of them for you.. it's going good. The runt has been harder to take care of but he's doing better
  • I took an orphaned puppy at two weeks old and didn’t know what to do since he was very young. This helped a lot. Thanks

    Thanks! Extremely helpful. We were suddenly blessed with a litter of six and a mother that passed away after one day of giving birth. We had the supplies and materials from the vet, but this was the practical help we needed.

    This was really helpful. I'm fostering three 10 day old orphaned pups through my rescue. Found this VERY helpful. Thank you for dharing

    I've bottle fed a calf before, oddly enough it was one of the best calves in our herd. Even beating most of the natural born and raised calves.

    That was a great video! It is obvious you know what you are doing. Thank you for explaining each step, saying why it is important and giving little tips along the way. Many people have no idea what is involved when taking care of puppies that young and the animal always plays the price. Thank you!

    I like the way you hold the puppy in the proper position when feeding - on its belly, not its back.  I would recommend that you also roll up a hand towel to let the pups rest their arms on while feeding.  Otherwise, their little arms flail around, they don't know what to do with them.

    thank you so much for the tips, I have an orphan puppy (chihuahua) and this helping me a lot.
  • Video was very helpful, thank you so much. I have five rottweiler puppies that lost their mother. I will keep this advice in hand.
  • Great video and the puppies are just gorgeous. God will keep blessing you for taking care of his beautiful creations. 😃
  • One thing I would add is once they get to about 1.5 -2 weeks old and taking in more formula it’s important to burp them after as well . There are videos on this . Even stopping between feeding and burping relieves the gas . Like you would burp a baby or you can hold them upright against your chest and rub their sides gently . Formula ratio should always be 1 part formula to 2 parts water . If you find the milk is too thick add a little extra water . Formula can be clumpy ... for me I Prefer to add the already warmed water to the formula . It helps with clumping .... Great video !
  • One of my dogs newborn puppy isn’t very loved and the mom isn’t feeding him so this is useful
  • @cindybui640
    This helps a lot because I’m getting a puppy at 5 weeks because the owners moving so they had to give it to me early. This is gonna help so much! Thank you

    So glad you are taking good care of these puppies with love. Nothing is better than having a real mom but they are so lucky to have you. 🙆
