Too many pups

[Hagerman]

I have a litter of 14 so far, how many cc's of goat milk per pup every 2-4 hours for newborns? I know this has been run through here before, but I can't find it.
Thank you.

Is the mom not feeding them?

If she is, then I would just let her be on her way. Some dogs can keep that many. Some can't. If she can't, then the ones that do come out will be stronger in the end.

Kinda sucks, but thats nature.

I had a female that always had big litters, 10 and more.

Just go to the store and get some big boxes of powdered milk.
Now you bitch dog will not drink enough water on her own.

This is what you must do, mix up 1 quart of milk. Mix this with 2 or 3 cups of the best dog food. Let it soak for 1/2 hour before feeding.

Now feed your Bitch Dog three times a day.
She will be able to produce all the milk these pups need.

You will have to let each pup get a tit, just make sure you rotate the pups of feeding times. You will have to put some pups in a box so this can happen easier everyday.

Otherwise there will be to many runts and two many giants.

What dale is referring to is known as metabolic water. This is critical and I often use milk replacer and or baby formula in the dogs food. It really helps mother acquire all the critical nutritional requirements needed for this.
