Bling

i have 3 poodles and their parents have been tested AA but i would like to get the girl have recently kept and the boy i have recently purchased tested, can anyone recommend a place i have heard prices vary enormously :) Kind regards Jenny

Thank you again for your support the more i read the more i think all is well, i have added calcium to her diet and a little nutrigel. she is now eating some of the puppies mush which has puppy biscuits, i am very reasured by your comments and think she does know what she needs, she is not losing weight and as the pups eat more hopefully she will gain weight. Learning about satin balls and the BARF diet will come in handy at another time thanks again.

Thank you for your replys, The chicken she gets is already carcass and she will eat bones, but i will go out and get some that are very fatty, if i mixed in mushed up puppy biscuits she picks through and leaves most but does get a few. i have upped her calcuim intake and given her some nutrigel, and also added calcium to her water. I am not sure what a Barf diet is but will look it up. thank you again for your comments im not as worried as i was.

I have had a few litters before but have never had any trouble getting my girls to hold their condition until now. my toy poodle has become so fussy and will only eat meat. i have taken to mixing in egg and biolac and do this 3 to 4 times a day (the egg once every 2 days) i have tried all her favorites but she just walks away. the puppies are as fat as mud and are nearly 3 weeks i have started them on some mush to help her but i am worried, she seems fine great mum, bright and happy, just not eating well, and looks "poor or very lean". i am feeding a mixture of different meats , chicken, beef lamb this she will eat but im worried that it is not enough goodness in it. any suggestions welcome.

Hello, I was hoping for a little information regarding using a surrogate mother, I have a girl who is extremely motherly i let the pups suckle and now she has milk. but i am wondering if the quality of the milk will be ok for week old pups. i am interested in any information on this topic and will be most grateful for any insight that may assist me or any one who has used another mother to share the load. The biological mother gave birth to a large litter, and is only a small dog and i want to share the load if possible As before any information would be grateful.
