Feeding a newborn puppy requires special care, especially if the mother is not available to nurse. Here’s what you need to do:

1. Use a Puppy Milk Replacer (Not Cow’s Milk)

Buy a high-quality puppy milk replacer (e.g., Esbilac, PetAg, or any vet-recommended brand).

Do not use cow’s milk or goat’s milk, as they lack essential nutrients and can cause diarrhea.

2. Use the Right Feeding Method

Bottle-feeding: Use a small pet nursing bottle with a soft ni**le.

Syringe or dropper-feeding: For very weak puppies, a syringe can help control the amount fed.

Hold the puppy belly-down (never on its back) and gently allow it to suckle.

3. Feeding Schedule

Newborn to 2 weeks old: Feed every 2-3 hours, including at night.

2 to 4 weeks old: Feed every 4-6 hours and introduce a shallow dish.

4+ weeks old: Gradually introduce soft puppy food mixed with milk replacer.

4. Milk Replacer Preparation & Amounts

Follow the package instructions for mixing.

General guideline: 1 cc per ounce of body weight per feeding.

Keep milk warm (~100°F/37.8°C) but not hot.

5. Stimulate Urination & Defecation

Newborn puppies can’t p*e or p**p on their own. After each feeding:

Use a warm, damp cotton ball or soft cloth to gently rub the puppy’s ge***al area to stimulate elimination.

6. Monitor for Issues

Look out for bloating, diarrhea, or refusal to eat—these could signal problems.

Puppies should gain weight daily. If they lose weight, see a vet immediately.
