Omg, we're first time fur grand parents and it is by accident since neighbor's dog broke the fence and let himself in uninvited 😅 so we end up with 8 mix great pyrenees and cane corso. I am so glad to come across your page because they just turn 4 weeks and we just left puppy kibbles and soaked in water. We thought that was just it. Some puppies ate, mostly just drink the liquid which we recently added the diluted puppy milk. So we are sooo glad and excited to try this recipe! We're crossing fingers they will like it and eat better. Thank you so much for this video!
OMG I wish I knew about this or saw this to ask if you had a female! I have a male Great Pyrenees Siberian husky mix who is huge and is almost 6 years old and wanted to breed him or get him a companion and breed them and that would’ve been beautiful I’m sure
Love hearing the puppies in the background.
My mom used to have us dip our pancakes in that Caro stuff. On the other end she was a health nut that wouldn't even let us have honey nut cheerios because it was "sugar cereal"
I am so happy to hear that Mercedes is doing well! I knew she'd be ok partly because she is surrounded by love both by her human "grandparents" (lol) not to mention the immense waves of loving energy being sent by everyone who watches your awesome videos! May GOD bless all of you!
❤💚💜💙💛
Thank you & God Bless you we were blessed with a surprise Pomeranian puppy when our Mommy was only 1yrs old - Thank goodness we found our puppy under mommy's Towel as we noticed water & blood bu the door when my husband got home from work - I shock we called vet etc.
He brought our Angelica back to life pumping her heart with fingers & blowing in her mouth - We have to keep her and Angelica means A messager from God - Thank you for the Gruel mix - MOMMA is done as baby has alot of teeth & noticed she lost 0.3ounces so really trying to feed her & your video I'd the best also I put the heating pad under the saucer I'm using to feed her to keep food warm.
God bless

By far the best video I’ve seen on how to make mush…my litter will be 3weeks on Sunday and on the 4th week I’ll start utilizing this method and ingredients…..
Thanks 💪🏾
This video helped a lot i have a 5 week old puppy and she didn’t wanna eat anything but i made this and she ate the whole bowl . THANK YOU U CAME THROUGH .
SUPER DUPER HAPPY WITH THIS RECIPE!! Our 4 week old puppies love it so much. They seem so much happier with this recipe. So glad we ran into your guys video. Thank you!
Awesome!! I’m so thankful we could help ❤️🐾
You guys are doing such an amazing job. It warms my heart to see how much you love your babies. Thank so much for sharing. ❤️
Omg. They are so precious and cute.
This is so so helpful. Thank you for taking the time to do this. We’ve got our first litter of Rhodesians. THANK YOU!!
Mercy, that is so much cuteness on this Saturday! Waiting for my Dogs to tee up as I type. So happy to hear Mercedes is doing well! I want that little girl so badly. My boy needs a companion.
This formula worked soo good for our orphan puppies...that we could not believe it! Because we tried everything...thank you soo much❤! Truly!!!
Awe! I’m so so thankful we could help ❤️🐾
This was very helpful. Most do not go into every detail on what they are feeding there pups. But I enjoyed this video. 🥰
Karo/cornsyrup is also really good for human babies if they are constipated or having poop issues.
I've never heard of gruel before.. thanks for the tutorial.. I love this channel.. 🙂😃 🐶
Hi your videos have been so helpful. My question is what is the schedule for 4 week old puppies to wean over to solid food. How many times a day do you offer the gruel? How many times should mom be nursing? After they finish gruel do you give them back to mom and let them nurse right after? How long between meals at 4 weeks of age? Do you leave water in the whelping box for them?
Many thanks for this. You gave me confidence!
Oh wow I feel so good that I've on the right track! Your suggestions are awesome and I love seeing the outcome of your beautiful babies! Very inspirational!! You guys are GREAT!!
Thank you!!
Thank you. We currently have French bulldog pups that are close to three weeks old and getting ready to introduce gruel. 🥰 This looks like a great recipe. ❤️
This made my day. The puppies have been crying a lot and momma has been feeding them less they just hit 3 1/2 weeks I was worried something was seriously wrong. Going to make this tonight
Did it woke
This was so helpul, thank you so much.
Native Pet's Probiotic and Organic Pumpkin are amazing products to add into the gruel also Raw Goats Milk is best for the puppies and dogs & Cats. Answers and Bones and Co are the ones to get. You can also put a microwaved rice sock up inside the raised part of the feeding bowl that way their gruel will stay warm and not get cold on them.
What is the "Sugary" liquid you added to the mix?... Love the idea of this recipe. My pups are 3 weeks one day old and are starting to get less from Mom. Excited to use this recipe for their first feeding. Appreciate your Content, thanks. Hapoy New Year👍🙏
Karo syrup
Wow they have grown up !!! 🥰
Thanks very informative, I have 6 Maltese Cross puppies 2 weeks old, I live in Australia so the products are different, but I'm sure I'll get there❤
They all look so gorgeous 😍
Thanks for the advice
Awww puppies are so beautiful 🤩
Best of luck in your new home sweet Bear!
Great advice thank you
Love it!!! Keep it up°
Adorable ❤
thank you for the gruel recipe!
Your welcome!
Best looked after puppies in the us
1st I wanted to say what a great channel and amazing dogs
I have a question I remember in one of your last videos you mention about giving apple cider vinegar in the water
What will be the benefits and what amount and how often
I have a 10 month old olde English bulldog
And any tips will be greatly appreciated
Hey! Thanks so much for watching. We have a video all about Apple cider vinegar and all the different ways you can use it. What it helps with and how much to use. I hope you can check it out ❤️🐾
Thank you fir the video. I have 2 litter dropping on 1/24/22
Do you have a formula for how you reduce the recipe to get them to solid food? Like how much milk to take away compared to other ingredients were adding?
Yes I also was looking for this information too
Awesome
Awww beautiful 😍
I love seeing how fast they grow
Omg thanks so much for the info and they are sooooooo stinking cute xoxo
look at the puppy spreading his legs @ 12:56 🙂😃💗 🐶
Awww hey guys xx
Hello - wonderful video! Does it matter if the goats milk is raw, pasteurized or unpasteurized? Thank you!
Hi
Great video boy they are so adorable eating ❤❤❤🙏🙏
Love the information y'all pass on, thank you.
We have a litter of 12!! Yes 12, conceived naturally without our knowledge lol until she showed signs of pregnancy.
How do y'all actually get them started with trying the mush and learning to eat it??? With so many I could use all the advice I can get! TIA
We start them on much around 4 weeks. Sometimes they need help getting started. Usually putting a spoon full up to their mouth with help them get started. Some puppies catch on slower than others.
On my 1st litter now of 11! 😱😱😱 and it's been lots of sleepless nights!
@@texan2547 get as much help as you can. I became a zombie for over a month with my husband's help when he wasn't at work. Also definitely get a battery operated nose "sucker" in any baby section, so much better and easier than the bulb sucker
@Tonya Beck yes my wife has been awesome doin most of the work while I work there all thriving but always wanting to eat
2:01 all that powder is ,is powdered goats milk
Some small grain rice in water in pressure cooker. Grated carrot broccoli in the mixture makes beautiful thickish Soft gruel. Then some cream because there's no lactose mixed through .mix a raw egg through for protein. After 6 weeks tiny pieces of chicken mixed through. Just logic common sense. No need for anything outlandish or expensive.
Cream? Cream is made from lactose. Depends what type of cream and whether it's lactose free or not... you also need the kibble as well. Basically trading out ingredients for his. We spent a little under $150 for all supplies. Including blankets and ingredients in this video
Dogs are vegetarian
@@truthspeaks6557 UMMMMMMM. Did I read that right?
Nice bulls brother 👏
Can you start them at 3 weeks and just get them 3 times a day then suck from the mother the rest? will they pick it up to transition easier if they just spend a few minutes messing with it?
Question: I feed RAW to all my EB's and I know you do also. My question is why would you use Kibble in their gruel vs adding some ground up meat (meal). Thanks for all your videos.
This is a great question! All of our puppies are being adopted out to new families. About 75% of dog owners still feed kibble. We are preparing these puppies for their new home knowing that there is a large chance they will not be fed RAW. If we were to start them on raw chances are they would not accept kibble well once they were adopted. Most everyone that follows us know we totally prefer RAW and we let all of our new puppy parents know that but we let them make their own decisions about what to feed. We encourage switching to RAW ASAP if that’s something they are interested in doing.
@@HouseofWrinkles Thanks my girl is pregnant and I was wondering what the best way was for the pups. Do you use a certain brand may I ask?
We like taste of the wild or Purina ProPlan
@@HouseofWrinkles when do you start and how feeding them raw?? All my dogs are on raw we are keeping our puppy and not sure when to start raw ground chicken?
You can start as soon as you like. Mix a little with the puppy food
You guys are a gem 💎. I've been looking for videos showing the process from birth. So at around 4 weeks feeding is every 4 hrs, so 6 times a day? Did I miss the part about how long we feed the gruel?
Thank you!! I’m so thankful we could help. We usually continue this gruel until 6 weeks. At 6 weeks we just soak the puppy food in water and serve ( no mashing up) at 8 weeks you can serve dry kibble if you prefer
@@HouseofWrinkles hi I have a question when did you vaccinate your pups?
6 or 7 weeks
so adorable!!! 😍 when will they start drinking water?
Around 6 weeks old we will introduce water.
So they don’t drink fluid before 6 weeks besides their food, correct?
Around 5 weeks we start letting them drink a little water. Full water bowl at 6 weeks
Do you have the video that shows feeding at 6 weeks? Was looking and couldn't find it.
I have a litter of 10 day old puppies I’m feeding them every 2 hours when do start feeding them every 4 or six hours ???? Please help love ur videos
Hi!
2 weeks every 2 hours
3 weeks every 3 hours
4 weeks every 4 hours
5 weeks every 5 hours
6 weeks 3 times a day
Which bag of pro plan is used ? There are a few different ones ! How often do they get fed
Can you guys make a video of when (what age) to deworm them n when are you supposed to give them their first shots please
Great idea! We deworm at 2,4,6 weeks. At 6 weeks we take them for shots and a worm check. If no worms then we don’t deworm anymore. We don’t give ours their shots we take them to the vet for that.
@@HouseofWrinkles what dewormer do you guys give the puppies?
Do you have video on how you make the gruel/mush after 6 weeks
No but it’s just simply adding water to the puppy food you choose and letting it soak for a few minutes, mash and serve
Also is the momma still nursing?
Wow, it’s a lot of work but certainly worth it as they look so healthy and beautiful, they are growing so much. When do you put them on a BARF diet? My ebd/oebd pups turned 5 months yesterday and I am feeding them the bulldog recipe for puppies from Royal Canin. We are going to start our old dogs who are not bulldogs on raw in the next week or so when the grinder comes in; they are both 12 years old, one in good health, the other not so much. I got inspired when I saw your video to look into this and have been researching and talking to my vet about it for my Adult dogs. Thanks in advance for answering.
We suggest putting them on the BARF diet right away. We don’t put our adoptable pups on raw because there is a great chance the new family will not be feeding them raw. But our suggestion is to start right away.
I’m glad your vet is on board with BARF. Most vets are against it. Good luck with your fur babies. We hope they show lots of improvement with the new diet. Thank you for watching!
We got our rottie when he was 12 weeks old and his breeder had him on Royal Canin. We transitioned him to the BARF diet right away. We live in Tx and get our raw food from Texas Tripe. Our vet was and remains very supportive to a raw diet which is wonderful!! Thor (our rottie - u can see him in my profile pic) tore his ACL when he was 9 mos old and we were going to do Plasma Rich Protein injections until he was a yr old bc he was still growing and our vet didn’t feel surgery would be the best option. We crate rested him for 8 weeks and continued the raw diet with joint supplements from Wholistic Pet Organics, and he nvr even needed a single PRP injection or surgery. His body healed itself with his diet and our vet was amazed. She tells this story to everyone who is interested in raw feeding - said she’d nvr seen anything like it. We later fostered and adopted our pittie and rhodesian ridgeback and we transitioned them to raw as well. The only time we have to take any of them to the vet used to be for vaccinations, but we had a titer test done on all of them and they no longer need their vaccinations either! Sad we don’t see our vet more often bc she’s so wonderful, but the money we spend on raw feeding saves us so much money on vet care in the long run. I’ll nvr ever feed kibble again to any dog we have!
This is an amazing testimony!! I absolutely love hearing stories like this ❤️
@@HouseofWrinkles Ty, happy to share! I’m still watching ur video, and got to the part about the Gerber Rice cereal. A Congressional committee found that Gerber had exceeded the amt of heavy metals (arsenic, cadmium, etc) that the FDA allows, and Gerber failed to recall their products despite this. U may want to look more in depth into this bc as much care as u put into ur pups, I know u wouldn’t want to give them anything bad. Hope this helps! Love ur channel! ❤️
Thank you for this!! We will definitely be looking into that. 🤭
Pups are thriving with this recipe. But do not eat it all as it’s gotten thicker. Should we water it down a bit more? Pups are 5.5 weeks old
If you don’t have a blender can you use a rolling pin to break the kibble down?
Sure just make sure there’s no chunks
I tried this today for my mini dachshund puppies and they loved it. Thank you! I have tried other ones and they didn't like it.
Can I refrigerate the mix to reuse?
Awesome! I’m so glad we could help. I would only reuse one more time then throw it out
I hope that makes sense. Only refrigerate once. Then start a fresh batch as it is only good for a few hours. Hope this helps
My 4 week old puppies LOVE this recipe! I'm worried I'm not giving them enough. Any recommendations?
Weight them everyday. They should be gaining pretty steadily. If they are draining the pan completely dry pretty quickly I suggest making a little more the next time. Keep making a larger amount until you reach where they walk away with a little tiny bit left still in the pan.
so when do u take away the gerber and it becomes just kibble ? I did this method but I’m having trouble believing pups at 8 weeks are still going to be using milk. Please reply I need answers
At 6 weeks you take away the milk and just soak the kibble in water for an hour or so. Mush it up really well ( no chunks) and serve. You can still give pumpkin mixed in it.
@@HouseofWrinkles Very much appreciated. Please if you can check Instagram I went ahead and sent over a dm over this please if you can further explain it be very much appreciated thank you very much
What's the feeding dish call your Wife said you got off Amazon Sir

What is the stuff he callled miracle worker
Trying to remember without going back and watching the video lol … I’m thinking it was the Karo syrup
5:48 For Day 1 you out everything in the milk except the kibble, correct?
Correct. No kibble til a few days
Hey guys i have one question…
Is the first time i bought a E.B. have 2 months, when i can start trying to feed with raw food???
You can start to transition immediately. Find out what the breeder is currently feeding. Buy 1 small bag of that and start to transition right away.
@@HouseofWrinkles thanks
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I have a question what’s a method you guys use to start getting them of mush and into big puppy food it’s just I’m not sure of how to start the reducing the milk or the rice cereal I am need help pls
There’s no wrong way to do it. Just every day make it thicker and thicker by adding more cereal. At 6 weeks stop the milk and cereal, just feed them the puppy food soaked in water and mushed up.
Hi, will this work for French bulldogs? This is my first Frenchie litter and in a few days I will also have my 1st e.b litter.
Yes. Congratulations on the babies!
At 4 weeks are you feeding them that 4 times a day?
At 4 weeks they need to eat every 4 hours. Some of these feedings can still be from mom
Can you meal prep?
Not really due to milk needing to be fresh
did you add rice or oatmeal. You said both.
It’s Gerber baby rice cereal.
How many weeks do you recommend feeding them this, sorry might of missed it in the video
4-6 weeks old
I see a lot of puppy recipies using kyro syrup... Are there any alternatives, as this is not available in my area..
Honey but u don’t need much at all
How often daily do they eat the gruel? My pups are starting week 3 so we are trying to prepare for next week, they nurse every 3-4 hours so curious how many nursings do we skip in replace of the gruel?
At 4 weeks every 4 hours they need to eat feed them gruel every other feeding and let them nurse the alternate feedings. At 5 weeks every 5 hours they will eat only use mom 3 times a day for short amounts of time.
It’s extremely important to watch mom closely this is when she is high risk to get mastitis. If her breast start to get warm and very full you will need to put cold compress on them to help dry up the milk. Mastitis comes on quickly and is dangerous for mom and her babies.
😍😍😍😍😍😍
What kind of goats milk did you use?
Goats milk you buy in the grocery store. It’s in the milk section. Any brand is fine
So can it be pasteurized ? Or is raw goats milk from the pet store better ?
Hi I have started weaning my pups in last 2 days and have given them some gruel. They all started shivering after eating and I’m really worried, after 10 minutes or so they seem to calm down but it’s horrible to watch. Is it because it’s a new thing or is this abnormal? The feed was Luke warm around 96 Fahrenheit
This is very common. Just make sure you feed in a warm area. And make sure the food is very very warm. But they will still sometimes do this.
At 6 weeks old can I mix goat milk with kibble only? Or how I can feed her?
Yes. Goats milk or water. Let the kibble soften up some before serving
At 6 weeks the goats milk is best. Recommended til 8 weeks
@@HouseofWrinkles perfect, thank you so much.
@@HouseofWrinkles by the way,when can I start deworming them?
You are supposed to start the deworming process at 3-4 weeks old. If that time has past I suggest starting right away. Sorry for the delay … just now saw this message. I apologize
Just tried giving my 3 week old litter the mush food and they weren't having it. How many times a day should we offer it and do we still give them bottles?
A lot of times it takes a few tries. Keep feeding them bottles until they take the mush. Make sure you serve the mush hot. Also use spoons to help them figure it out. Use the spoon to guide them toward the bowl.
@@HouseofWrinkles ok thank you so much! Were going to try again this weekend. They will be 4 weeks old
My puppies just turned 4 weeks and have been completely bottle fed since 1 1/2 weeks due to an infection in the mom. My question is once I feed them the gruel, do I still give them formula in the bottle or do I completely switch to gruel ?
Completely switch. Just make the first day really milky and runny. Gradually very slow each day make it thicker.
@@HouseofWrinkles thank you. Today was day one and they didn’t eat much so I gave them formula again. They are only about 4 pounds and not as steady on their feet as yours.
Yes it takes a few tries before they get it down. You did the right thing. This litter seems a little bigger than our past litters.
How often can I feed at 5 weeks?
Every 5 hours. 6 weeks 4 times a day
So, do ya'll bathe them each time after this? Or do they clean each other? 😁😁😁 Love your videos. Wish I could get one.
We have baby wipes we try to wipe them down after each feeding. If anything is missed they do lick it off of eachother which is adorable lol. Baths are needed occasionally for sure.
Do you still let mom feed them or do you separate the mom from them
We let mom feed them but separate them when they aren’t eating.
@@HouseofWrinkles ok thanks I’m new to this and I have 12 they just turned 3 weeks today
Pumpkin pie ? Or pure pumpkin
Pure pumpkin
In a can
How much is does one puppy cost usually?
We have a video about cost. Hope you can check it out. It all depends on color and registration.
I've got a Zoe that's got a black eye Brow lol
Good afternoon guys, I would like to buy a puppy, by any chance do you guys delivery to L.A.? Thank you
All of the pups already have new homes. Thank you so much for your interest and thank you for watching ❤️
Id feed them a bigger portion
Perina, Caro Syrup What in the world? Wasn't it that Beneful that was killing all those dogs back like 2007?
I’m not sure what your talking about. But if you know what Karo syrup is you will know that you don’t give it to adult dogs. Karo is basically sugar water heated into a syrup form. Small amounts are very beneficial to puppies which bodies are growing fast and needing sugars in their diet to help them develop properly.
Do you give that goat milk to small puppies when supplementing breast?
Yes
@@HouseofWrinkles thank you i need to try this with my puppy my female got 1 puppy 2 weeks ago and she was doing fine and she lost her milk,the puppy formula seems to constipate the puppy
Hi! I really love your videos. I just had a littler of English bulldogs as well. They were born on October 11 so tomorrow they will complete their 3 weeks and going on 4th. When can I start the puppy gruel? I was wondering if I can start it tomorrow starting their 4th week or do I keep nursing in momma till next week?
You can definitely start the gruel now but don’t stop letting them nurse. The reason for this is if you stop nursing all at once this will cause your momma to develop a breast infection. Mastitis is very painful for the mom and requires antibiotics to clear it up. Continue to let them nurse in addition to feeding them gruel. They will naturally nurse less and less and momma will ween them in a safe way. Keep a close eye on her breast if the start to feel hard this is mastitis setting up.
@@HouseofWrinkles thank you so so much!!!! If I have any further questions, which I probably will is there another way to reach you guys? I am always searching your videos to see if I can find my answer, you guys are too awesome. Let me know thank you!
FB is quicker. We also have Instagram but we don’t check it as often. If you don’t have either of these you can email us at Houseofwrinkles@gmail.com
A lot of people recommend goat's milk but it's really not as nutritious as other options. Expensive and not the best.
Goats milk is easier on their stomachs. You can always add egg whites and other things to build up the nutrition value. In our experience the Goats milk has always worked best for us.
Did you guess make a part two to this video
No we never did. I’m sorry. We meant to
@@HouseofWrinkles so when should I make the full transaction and should I allow them to still feed off mom
How old are they now?
Continue to let them feed on mom until 6 weeks.
Start gruel at 3 and half or 4 weeks.
At 5.3 weeks drop the milk and cereal and just soak kibble in water for several hours and mash up really well ( no lumps) AND introduce water bowl
7 weeks leave a few lumps ( small pieces)
8 weeks leave several lumps
@@HouseofWrinkles they are going on 4 weeks
@@HouseofWrinkles thanks so much
I want one puppy... Can you ship to india. I will pay all payment to you in advance.... Please...
We have never shipped to India. We wouldn’t know how to go about that.
@@HouseofWrinkles Thank you for your reply.... Next time i will come...
Your dogs have serious faults and you should not be reproducing with those dogs. No responsible bulldog breeder would ever breed with those dogs. Bowed front legs, undershot jaw, and their head and skull size is way out of whack!
