Just wondered what most peoples veiws are on this. Our pups are now 2 weeks so thinking ahead and planning for weaning I was going to get more Welpi in as I had given this to the mum, however a few people have said that powdered goats milk is better to give?
So before I order I would value peoples opinions and experience.
thanks

Goats milk is for kids (Baby goats).
Puppy milk is for puppies.

I give a 'puppy milk' made from Goats milk (Nutrolac), as goats milk is better tolerated than cows milk from which most puppy/kitten formulas are made.

Have always used Ewe's Milk Replacer never, had a problem

I use Goats milk when weaning, mixing up the puppy food into a puppy porridge with it, usualy at about 4 weeks, they then continue on when weaned with it as additional treat after at least 1 meal per day. I always put some into the puppy kits when they leave foo new homes. I never use poder formula milk at all with pups, if I have to supplement or hand rear I use a mixture made up with Carnation, egg yol and water.
thanks all. Looked at the nutrolac, think I'll go with that. Going to order a few tubs then they can have some in their puppy packs too.
ive used nutrolc ,the pups loved it
I gave the pups fresh whole goats milk which they absolutley loved! From about 4 weeks, they would have milk after their food as a dessert... can't tell you how much they loved it! All our pups were growing well, not fat, and very healthy.
I'm not sure how much milk they really need after 8 weeks.

Our puppies loved goats milk too, in fact so did Henry, he kept sneaking into the whelping box to steal it from them!!
The hurrier I go - the behinder I get!
Lol at Jean! Henry is my silly old Cavalier, he was 5 years old at the time Ellie had the puppies, and he loved them to bits - we had to keep him out of the box the first few days, but after that he practically brought them up along with Ellie - and they weren't even his puppies. He's also never been interested in toys, but he fell in love with one of the puppy toys and kept stealing it!
lucydogs he sounds just adorable ,bless him
