What are the feeding knowledge points that newborn puppies should pay attention to?
First: When the puppy is born, it will immediately suck breasts. The dog owner should let the newborn puppy lie next to the female dog in order to suck breasts. If there are many puppies in one child, the last puppies (usually small and weak in physique) should be placed on the last two pairs of nipples to suck breasts. After repeated several times, each puppies will have a fixed nipple.
Secondly: Be careful when it comes to breastfeeding and breastfeeding. The newborn puppy has not produced antibodies in its body, but the female dog secretes a large amount of breast milk rich in a variety of antibodies, so the newborn dog should eat colostrum. It is more worth mentioning that colostrum contains a variety of antibodies (maternal antibodies) of female dogs, so that the puppies can achieve disease resistance. Therefore, newborn puppies should be allowed to eat colostrum as soon as possible (preferably within 1 hour).
3: When the puppy is a little older, breast milk sometimes becomes insufficient, so you need to properly nourish your breasts. At this time, do not feed the puppy milk, because the puppy's gastrointestinal function is very poor, and drinking milk at this time is very easy to cause diarrhea.
Note: If you want to breastfeed your puppy, it is best to use special dog milk powder and try not to use milk, otherwise the puppy will have diarrhea. Boil and disinfect, feed it with a bottle, and the temperature is about 27-30 degrees. Generally, there is no need to be deliberately limited in the amount of breastfed until it is fed.
