1. Let the puppy eat breast milk. Breast milk 3 to 5 days after delivery is not only rich in nutrients, but also has a variety of antibodies, which can protect the puppies that have eaten colostrum with multiple immune abilities for 8 months and protect them from viral damage and invasion.
2. If the female dog is weak, sick, or gives birth to too many babies, artificial breastfeeding is necessary. Artificial breastfeeding can be done with milk powder. Since dog milk is thicker than cow's milk, feeding milk alone is not enough nutrition. Some milk powder must be mixed with milk. In the first 10 days, the baby can be fed with a baby bottle, 4 to 6 times a day, and the total amount of feeding per day should not be less than 100 ml. When puppies can open their eyes, they can be fed from a food bowl to develop their ability to eat. From 10 to 20 days, the breastfeeding volume should be gradually increased to 300 ml. After 25 days, you can mix baby biscuits and other foods into the milk and make the milk into porridge to prepare for future weaning.
3. The excretion of a puppy Springer Spaniel is usually accomplished by licking the area around the anus with the tongue of the female dog. If the female dog is incapable, this action must be completed manually. The specific method is to gently rub the anus of the puppy with a cotton ball or soft paper, or gently rub the abdominal wall of the puppy with one finger. Once after each meal.
4. Weaning of puppies is usually around 45 days. There are two methods of weaning: batch weaning. According to the development of the puppy Springer Spaniel, the strong ones will be weaned first, and the thin and delicate ones will be weaned later. Gradually wean. This is a method of weaning by gradually reducing the number of lactations. This method involves exposing the mother and puppies to the public a few days before weaning. Reunite them at the artificially prescribed feeding time, and separate them after the puppies are full.
