Feeding an orphan puppy...
We are fostering a Maltese puppy who came to us from the San Diego Humane Society at seven days old.
The Humane Society provided us with the milk replacement that they use. It is excellent and surpasses any previous milk replacer we have used.
Of course, mom's milk is the best! However, there are times when a lactating mom is not available. The Breeder's Edge Canine Milk Replacer really has been doing a great job. This little guy is lively and gaining weight and there have been no signs of diarrhea which has been a problem with some milk replacers we have used previously.

At at about four weeks of age we will begin feeding him Royal Canin Health Nutrition Starter Mousse Canned Dog Food along with the milk replacer. We have saved the lives of several puppies with this food.
