The phone number of contact for these pupies has now been deleted.
No more calls please if you still have retained the number - we are feeling like the GPO call exchange.
The situation is under control and puppies are being looked after very well.
We would like to thank every single person who has called with all the various offers of help it
has been outstanding and we are very grateful.
It is wonderful that in an emergency you all came together and helped out.
Thank you.

purchase some colostrum from your vet asap.
you can also purchase puppy formula
be careful not to let them drink too fast as they will asperate.

I'm sorry to hear about this. If you cannot find a bitch to foster them, here is some excellent information on bottle raising puppies: leerburg.com/bottlefeeding.htm
Bottle Feeding Recipe
11 Calories per CC
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.
3 oz. sterilized water (baby water or boiled water) this is not needed if using goat's milk
1 raw egg yolk
1 cup of whole yogurt (avoid skim or fat free if at all possible)
1/2 Tsp Karo Syrup or Corn Syrup (NOT HONEY !!!)
****If you cannot find Karo or Corn syrup where you live, you can do a Google search for “substitute for Karo syrup” and get some options.****
When I Googled “substitute for Karo syrup" here is what I came up with- 1 c Karo can be subbed with 1 c white sugar and 1/4 c hot water (cook it to dissolve in the water best you can get it to. Depending on the recipe, if you need the sugar to be completely dissolved you might need to add a bit more water).
Place ingredients in a blender and blend or use a wire whisk. Be careful to not over blend and create a milk shake full of bubbles and then tube bubbles into the puppy.
Keep cool and discard leftovers after 7 days.
Warm formula to body temperature (dogs are around 101 degrees). Discard any un-used formula. This is a thick mixture - use a stomach tube to tube feed or enlarge the hole in the nipple for easy access for the pup.

Hi Guys
Thanks for all your help & support But these are not my puppies (thankfully)
The bitch it appears has been in a very long labour & one pup was very much stuck
so when taken to the vets a cesarean was done & she died under the anaesthetic.
She was only 5 years old had only had 1 previous litter this was to be her last.
Will pass all your info on to the lady in distress - have not spoken to her for the past 6hrs
been out with own dogs etc.
Thanks once again will try to keep you updated.
