I have Great Dane pups. This is her second litter. I did not grind the kibble but soaked it in water for a couple of hours. Then added the warm milk to make it soupy. I continued this adding less and less milk. It was easy to mush with a fork and there were no chunks.
Very grateful to have found this video. I am fostering orphan puppies who will be 3 weeks old tomorrow and I was wondering how and when I will handle the transition. This video gives very clear instructions, thank you❤
She is like my dog with the affection. My dog is what I call a LabSkimo (American Eskimo Black Lab Mix) I recently got a pure white male Pomski with blue eyes. I bread these 2 dogs and she had 11 in the liter. 7 Pure whites and 4 Blacks. My dog is all Black 30 pounds normally. She is being such a good mother. Puppies are 9 days told today. So, I am just watching to learn more about puppies. Thanks for the video.
How often should I feed 3 and a half week old puppies???? I’ve searched for it but it doesn’t really give me an answer, it sometimes says 6 hours some times 3 sometimes 4 hours??? Also if a puppy is constipated can I start to wean him? Should I give him a drop of olive oil? Also if a puppy had pneumonia can I put him back with the litter after 2 weeks of giving medicine(clavamox)? Also it ultra 24 milk replacer mixed with a little bit of victor high pro plus and a little dyne good for starting to wean pups? I would really appreciate some answers!!!
I’d of soaked the kibble in warm boiled water and blend when it was soft, I prefer to not add the milk replacer as the food is a meal in itself and I feel it will make them mega thirsty and uncomfortable later. At 3.5 weeks they aren’t good at lapping water if thirsty. Just a tip for your future pups if have any x. X x
@@StandingStoneKennels I thought so yeah, I have been bingeing your videos the past couple months... had my first litter of pups 4 weeks ago and you SAVED MY LIFE... I thought I was ready for it, but your videos let me know just how ready I wasn't lol I really appreciate your content, my litter was Australian Cattle Dogs and I learned ALOT from you. Learned even more when those little suckers started being born. You helped me stay Calm and have at least some knowledge about the birthing process. I don't know what I would have done without you to be honest. Thank you so much for your content. It's appreciated more the I can Express through UA-cam. Hope the best for you and your family, your future Mommas and puppies 🙏👍
I agree with most of this as a breeder of American bullies xxls to pockets and movingni to franchise and micro and exotic and merlesz but selling this XXL litter of correct gorillas first
i believe every week you should take away 25% of milk, when you are around 50% less milk then you should make the milk more watery then milky, at 75% less milk then you just replace the milk with water, let the kibble just soak in the water for 30 mins and feed it to them, if you start feeding them this at 4 weeks then by 8 weeks they would already be able to eat hard kibble!
Well labs like to chew up stuff witch means preety much anything so when you train them they will chew things up as they go prolly but some labs dont chew it up when untrain yhem and sometimes they do it depends on the puppy but if you get a lab that has training by u but still chews things up then get her a lot of interactive toys like kongs and just alot of stuff to chew ALOT so that ur answer
Chewing will be bad if you allow the puppy to get bored or anxious, they chew because it helps them feel calm and relaxed... plenty of play time and chewy treats to keep them occupied and away from things they shouldn’t chew. My lab hasn’t chewed any furniture... yet! Thank god. He’s 1 and a half now and the happiest part of my day
Yes as they attach to the parent more than most breeds due to their loving hearts......thus should be well expressed and done more....... should be with mom until 16 weeks....... (this breed just doesn't get the crop and dock the other 16 week Olds do, they need it for temperament, and time to say goodbye to mom as this breed needs this total separation and watching the mothet move on ...........and then within the litter and they are least likely to get littermate syndrome, and/or future dog aggression. #breedcorrectforthebreeditself
My mama dog does the same thing! I get in the whelping box with the pups to snuggle with them and she comes in and climbs in my lap and kisses my face the whole time lol. My pups are 3 weeks and 1 day old.
So we started giving the puppies milk replacer about 5 days ago b/c mom has mastitis. As of yesterday they are 4 weeks old and we introduced the mush twice today. They have diarrhea since the changes of milk replacer. My question is how often should I give them the mush a day now that they don’t drink milk from their mom?
Yes❤ I first put the kibble then added milk and the pups were like what the heck glad they didn’t eat it as they could have choked! This morning I did how you showed me and one was licking it so first time I am happy haha 😂 but I think I’m making too much I did half a cup for pups of 4 micro American bullies lol 🤦🏻♀️ I probably need a sprinkle 😂
And one more if you train a pointer to point birds in the field could they still retrieve a duck or dove or something like that or do they just do pointing or just do retrieving?
Hi there , I can seem to find that big bag of esbilac powder, do you have a link for it? I’ve been buying the can powder one and really need that big bag, thank you
This is good but hard to watch with my puppy mom hearing the whining of YOUR puppies and going into alert mode checking on them thinking that her puppies are whining. 😂 A lot of people complain about esbilac causing constipation. Thoughts...?
Hey Kat! Where did you get that flying saucer pan for the puppies? My other question is what type of puppy food are you feeding? I’ve been looking for a high quality dog food for my gsps and chihuahuas but I find that some of the food makes them poop a lot! Just wondering if you have a preference that would help with that. Grain or grain free food? Love your videos and really appreciate your hard work!❤️
Thank you very much for all of your videos. Am curious as to how to help our vizsla dam to regain her former sleek figure? That is to say, what to do about saggy teats?
My puppies just turned 4 weeks old today and I'm trying to wean them off mom and I did as your video suggested but my babies didn't want to eat as of yet do u have suggestions.
How do you keep mom away from the litter pan (she will want to clean up after the pups even in the litter pan) where puppies are going potty while she is still nursing them when they begin to start relieving themselves on their own and start using the litter pan at 3wks old?
And one more if you train a pointer to point birds in the field could they still retrieve a duck or dove or something like that or do they just do pointing or just do retrieving?
They'll retrieve after the point, depending on how you train them will determine when they'll break to fetch the bird. You can train steady to wing, steady to shot, or steady to fall and you release them to fetch and retrieve.

LOL on 11:13 my subtitle said "the sue penis" but overall best vid on puppy mush ive found on youtube! easy and informative!

I want to thank you so much.. I have litter of 14 and have learned how to whelp, trim nails, etc. Thank you
Thank you so much. This was a huge help for a first time litter. Our puppies are growing big and strong thanks to your tips
Thank you for this series of videos! You have been such a great help to me while I go through this process for the first time with 11 puppies!
Glad that this series helped! 11 puppies is a big litter glad the videos helped you!
Makes you wonder how on earth pups in the wild ever survived.
😅

I have found a coffee grinder works WONDERS vs the blender!!
I just had to chuckle when you were saying their names.. one of my mares is named Rain, and the foal she had from my stallion, is called Thunder...
Use a strainer to get the best consistancy and chunk free after powdering in the blender
Great idea!
I’d of soaked the kibble in warm boiled water and blend when it was soft, I prefer to not add the milk replacer as the food is a meal in itself and I feel it will make them mega thirsty and uncomfortable later.
At 3.5 weeks they aren’t good at lapping water if thirsty. Just a tip for your future pups if have any x. X x
Thanks for another puppy update. Appreciate all your videos
Thank you for the videos. Helped me out alot. Solid black german shepherd pups. 😊
Use a food strainer with small Slots/holes to strain your Blended Kibble... saves you time and effort Picking Out the larger pieces.
Good idea

Will moms teats go back to regular size after weaning and usually how long will it take.
Yes. (as you already found out). About two months. They will never be as tight as pre litter, but they get close. Even after 5 litters.
I agree with most of this as a breeder of American bullies xxls to pockets and movingni to franchise and micro and exotic and merlesz but selling this XXL litter of correct gorillas first
Ok, the pups are adorable, but mom is an absolute love. I'd have a hard time not giving her all the attention she wants.
How long should the process take to move from mush to dry kibble? How old should they be when they eat dry food? Thank you!
i believe every week you should take away 25% of milk, when you are around 50% less milk then you should make the milk more watery then milky, at 75% less milk then you just replace the milk with water, let the kibble just soak in the water for 30 mins and feed it to them, if you start feeding them this at 4 weeks then by 8 weeks they would already be able to eat hard kibble!
I have heard labs tear up stuff do they still destroy stuff even if you start training as soon as you get them? God Bless
Well labs like to chew up stuff witch means preety much anything so when you train them they will chew things up as they go prolly but some labs dont chew it up when untrain yhem and sometimes they do it depends on the puppy but if you get a lab that has training by u but still chews things up then get her a lot of interactive toys like kongs and just alot of stuff to chew ALOT so that ur answer
All dogs chew things until they are corrected.
Chewing will be bad if you allow the puppy to get bored or anxious, they chew because it helps them feel calm and relaxed... plenty of play time and chewy treats to keep them occupied and away from things they shouldn’t chew. My lab hasn’t chewed any furniture... yet! Thank god. He’s 1 and a half now and the happiest part of my day

Thanks for informative and understandable content
My mama dog does the same thing! I get in the whelping box with the pups to snuggle with them and she comes in and climbs in my lap and kisses my face the whole time lol. My pups are 3 weeks and 1 day old.
Is there a specific reason to blend it versus using wet food? Curious. Any perspective if / when Mom isn't nursing as much at this time?
Thanks for sharing. Some awesome info. Have you tried canned puppy food instead of dry? Good looking fat healthy puppies.
how many times do you feed them a day?
she said twice a day
How often do you feed them that way per day
So we started giving the puppies milk replacer about 5 days ago b/c mom has mastitis. As of yesterday they are 4 weeks old and we introduced the mush twice today. They have diarrhea since the changes of milk replacer. My question is how often should I give them the mush a day now that they don’t drink milk from their mom?
Can you tell me the brand name of the flying saucer feeding pan and what size?
Soooo helpful ❤
Glad it was helpful!

Pointer point naturally and also retrieve

This is good but hard to watch with my puppy mom hearing the whining of YOUR puppies and going into alert mode checking on them thinking that her puppies are whining. 😂 A lot of people complain about esbilac causing constipation. Thoughts...?
How much of each did you put in mix (kibble, milk replacer and water)
Should I include the esbilac for 4 week old first time mush eating puppies?

Love your videos and really appreciate your hard work!❤️
Amazon!
What kind of food did you blen? What is the name? I’m not sure what to feed my puppies.
Do you guys keep all the puppies is that why you name them
Can i put it in a blender to mix, if I am introducing it for the first time
What type of Dog kibble did you guys use ?
Where do you get those flying saucers feeding dishes? And where do you get the large bag esbilac?
Amazon
once you introduce the mush how often do you give it to them ? 1 x day? 2x day etc thnx!!!!
never mind I just got it- 1x per week at first
Thank you for tuning in!
Wow so amazing 😇 video
Just curious we are doing this for the 1st time can u use water instead of puppy formula?
No get formula! It will be much easier on them!
When my lab mix had puppies i used water for their puppy mush and they did awesome with it and had no problems
Us to we just used water and they were fine!
It's a very cute video
Where can i purshase a bowl like the one you using ?
I just bought one on Amazon
Thank you very much for all of your videos. Am curious as to how to help our vizsla dam to regain her former sleek figure? That is to say, what to do about saggy teats?
Where did you get the round feeding tray?
My puppies just turned 4 weeks old today and I'm trying to wean them off mom and I did as your video suggested but my babies didn't want to eat as of yet do u have suggestions.
How much older then 3 weeks where the pups
Pretty sure my poor pup was weaned too early :( He likes to suckle and paw at blankets then falls asleep...
Did their tails get cut? It looks a lot shorter.
Yes GSP's get their tails docked
Do your 3/4 week pups
Sleep eat pee all in that same pin… if so will they do that the entire 8wks ?
What happened to there tails
We dock our puppy's tails.
How do you keep mom away from the litter pan (she will want to clean up after the pups even in the litter pan) where puppies are going potty while she is still nursing them when they begin to start relieving themselves on their own and start using the litter pan at 3wks old?
Why NOT cow's milk? I have abundant access to RAW Cow's Milk; is that okay? (I would never feed pasteurized milk, to humans or animals!)
Cow’s milk can be hard to digest and cause diarrhea and upset stomach in puppies.
GSP
First
This is disgusting. The presentation was all wrong
