Selfmade puppymilk - Page 1

Just for an emergency case: Does anyone have recipes for making puppymilk if no instant puppymilk is at home? So you can feed little puppies as first aid for some hours e.g. during a night

1 can of goat's milk.

3 oz. sterilized water

1 raw egg yolk

1 cup of whole yogurt (not lowfat)

1/2 Tsp Karo Syrup

Go to the store and buy a few cans of Goats Milk.  You can get them ahead of time and have them on your shelf in case you happen to need them. Goats Milk is the closest to dog's milk that you can get naturally.  If that doesn't work, go to your local feed store and buy a small bag of Lamb Milk Replacer.  (You can store it in the freezer and it will be good for a long time.)

Goodluck

I raised 13 puppies on whole milk,eggyolks,vegetable oil and they all grew up into healthy pups,

Recipy for 1/2 gallon of whole milk.

Put 1/2 of the 1/2 gallon of milk  3 eggyolks 1tbl.spoon od vegetable oil in the blender blend it well  if you need more just repeat with the other half. nook as needed in microwave refrigde left over.I still use that if I have to in an emergency.

I would love to see some other remedies .

Hi Akira,

This homemade formula works well for us and the pups like it too. The evap goats milk has a 7 day shelf life refrigerated. The key is the correct bottle and nipple which is provided in the info! Goodluck!

I like that one , I never knew you could buy goatsmilk thank you all.

I use 50-50 evaporated goat's milk (bought canned in the supermarket) with an egg yolk in each 8 oz. mix.

This is from Leerburg site.  I have used it several times.  Sometimes with a smaller pup it gives the boost they need or to help mom out with a larger litter.

1. 10 oz. of canned evaporated milk or goat's milk (not pasteurized cow's milk - this will cause scowers - dogs cannot drink normal cow's milk) Goats milk is by far the best to use. Wall Mart sells it.
   
    
2. 3 oz. sterilized water (baby water or boiled water) this is not needed if using goat's milk
   
    
3. 1 raw egg yolk
   
    
4. 1 cup of whole yogurt (avoid skim or fat free if at all possible)
   
    
5. 1/2 Tsp Karo Syrup or Corn Syrup (NOT HONEY !!!)
