Puppy formula!

Puppies need almost 40% fat and over 30% protein in their milk. They need more fat than kittens when they are younglings. And if you are feeding an orphaned puppy, you can completely wean them off formula at 4-5 weeks. Solids made with sooji or rice, mashed veggies as in baby food(slowly introducing meat into the diet)..mixed with puppy formula and mashed cooked chicken liver...can be made into a porridge and given when they are about 2-3 weeks old. it's easier to make a large batch and divide them. it shouldnt be refridgerated for more than 3 days, but can be frozen.

Puppy formula(from Dr.Pitcairn's book)...1 cup is about 250 calories. They dont need much. Most people overfeed puppies. They dont need a lot, but they need it often..every 2 hours in the beginning and every 4 hours by the time they are about 4-5 weeks!

a. 3/4 cup half-half(i.e. 50% milk and 50% cream)
b. 1 cup whole milk(pref goat's milk..too much cow's milk may cause indigestion. in india donkey's milk is also popular. its a good substitute for even human mothers' milk!)
c. 2 large eggs
d. 1/2 tbsp protein powder(we can get proteinex at the pharmacies..and its only 1/2 tbsp..it'll go a long way!)
e. 1/3 tsp crushed eggshell powder(cheapest source of homemade calcium..of course..you can also get bone meal calcium supplements/tablets etc)
f. 1 day's worth of crushed vitamin supplement
