hi mga sis...

we bought lactol na lang, mas pricey pala 550 ang small plastic can. ;) the mom loves it more than the puppies, haha. only one pup sucks eagerly from the bottle, so i told them give the unfinished timpla to the mom. she loves it! as in simot. hahaha...it doesn't upset her tummy naman. buti na lang... ;D

Sis! Sorry, sana abot pa reply ko... Sa Gabieta Veterinary Clinic sa A.Bonifacio Street in Cainta.

thanks for the reply sis, a friend of mine lives in greenland so carry ko ang landmarks. hehe. baybayin ko na lang tom yung a boni. hehe. :) paubos na kasi (na naman) yung lactol. we give the mom 2x a day at least kasi super haggard na talaga sya sa pups. :( kawawa...

^ Wow, mas pricey nga sya at 550... Ilan ang pups mo sis? :)

^ Wow, magastos yun sis kung Lactol lagi. P500 nang P500... Malapit lang yung Gabieta Veterinary Clinic sa Greenland sis. Madalas nilalakad ko lang yun pag pumupunta ako sa Mercury after bumili ng dog food. :) You can ask around if you're in doubt. Hehe! Pero I'm sure you'll find it easily. :)

My dog gave birth to 4 puppies. Almost 3 weeks na sila. Lactating naman ang mommy dog kaso minsan ayaw nya. Ok na bang bigyan ng vitamins ang mommy dog? I bought LC vit. Ok naman ang appetite. Gusto ko lang healthy sya kasi lactating sya.

Sa pups naman, I bought Hollistic puppy para maready na sila kumain. Puede na ba sa kanila Cosi Pet Milk? Kasi di pa din sila sturdy maglakad. Natutumba tumba pa sila. Pero very playful na.

^pwede naman ang lc-vit sis pero may pre/post natal vitamins for dogs. better ata yun kasi may anti-parvo properties? yun nakalagay sa label ha pero hindi ko pa nagamit mga yan. naka-raffavit kasi yung mother dog kaya ubusin ko muna yun siguro.

a sales attendant from pet express told me hindi pa pwede ang cosi milk sa pups this young. i'm giving promil lactofree right now for both the mom and pups. parang mas gusto nila kaysa lactol. ok naman poop nila. mabigat din. they feed on their mom's milk pa din but i supplement kasi ka-worry ang pagbagsak ng weight nitong mother dog ko. the pups are now 6 wks and i'm weaning them with acana na.

@dolphingirl: I agree with cocoysmom, hindi ideal ang cosi sa puppies na dumedede pa. Kulang yun sa nutrients na necessary sa kanila. Yung mga powdered milk formulas usually ang ideal like Lactol, Puppy Luv, Esbilac, Royal Canin babydog and the likes. ^_^

@cocoysmom: My adult shih tzu gave birth to 3 baby boys early this year. Kulang na kulang sa breast milk yung nanay kaya I had to bottle feed them. Lactol din ginamit ko and nakabawi naman yung puppies. Lahat sila healthy at mga damulag na ngayon.  ;D

Hi sisses! Ask ko lang po... Is it normal for Mommy dogs to lose a lot of weight and to shed a lot of hair after giving birth? Yung Jap Spitz ko kasi parang hindi parin nakakarecover hanggang ngayon... Nagwoworry na ako. :( Ang payat-payat nya and ang nipis ng buhok. Yung buntot nya nga, halos wala nang long hair, eh diba ang haba ng hair ng Jap Spitz sa buntot? :(

If you remember, she gave birth nung May 30 to 5 pups. I also had to bottle feed the pups because they had to discontinue feeding from the mom coz of some compliactions. Ayun, they're all very healthy naman. Ang bibigat at ang lilikot. :) They're eating dry dog food narin. :)

^ hi sis mojitayanipot. Normal lang yun sis na magshed and maglose ng weight, pero kung nung May pa siya naggave birth dapat nakarecover na siya. Dapat ibigay mo na mga favorite food niya para makarecover siya like chicken. dapat nadagdagan din yung food intake niya especially nung naglactate siya. ^_^

^^ Dinagdagan naman namin yung food na binibigay namin sa kanya sis, with matching sabaw-sabaw pa nga eh. Hehe. Kaya lang, naging sobrang pihikan nya sa food. Ayaw kumain. :( Buti nga ngayon, mejo kumakain na sya eh. I'm giving her calcium supplement... Sinasabay ko narin sya sa Tiki-Tiki ng pups. Hehe. Tapos yung tirang Puppy Love powder ng pups, para sa kanya ko narin tinitimpla every morning. Nakakaubos naman sya ng half-cup. Anything more than that, tinatapon na nya. Do you think Raffavit will help her get her appetite back? I had to throw out her remaining Raffavit kasi hindi na-refrigerate. Takot ako ipainom pa sa kanya baka kasi mas makasama sa kanya...

^ What seems to be the prob with your pup, sis Lulubelle123?

^^ Sis mojitayanipot di ba nakalagay na refrigerate after opening? Baka hindi na siya okay. It's better siguro na ipacheck up na dog mo para mabigyan siya ng proper medication or vitamins kung kailangan niya. ^_^

^^ How long has it been sis since your chow gave birth? Si Yuki din eh... Manipis na ang fur, magaspang pa. :( Her appetite's a bit better naman na. And our househelp says na may mga tumutubo na syang bagong fur (Sya kasi nagpapaligo kay Yuki). Pero her energy level never changed. Well, siguro 2-3 days after nya manganak mejo mahina pa sya, pero after that, back to normal na. Ang likot parin. Hehe.

^ Nakalagay sis, na refrigerate after opening, kaya lang sobrang late ko na nabasa. Yun yung mga panahong tuliro ako eh. Haha! I consulted the vet narin when I went to buy fresh stocks ng dog food. Try ko nga daw Raffavit. I'll just make sure to keep it refrigerated this time. Hahaha!

me too sobrang napa-praning ako sa weight loss ng dog ko, matakaw naman at masigla pero ang bagal bumalik ng katawan. :(  tabachingching kasi ito, mabigat as 5.5 kg and more pa nung malaki na tyan nya. nakakainis. i'm slowly weaning her pups na kasi 8 wks naman na. once a day ko na lang sila pinapagsama. i bought a cage already for the pups, teething na din kasi, hehe. although like ko naman mga pups nya, parang nakakasisi na sa kata___han ng kasambahay namin eh nabuntis sya.  :-[

ginagawa ko nang 5x a day ang pakain eh. ang pups nya 3x lang. pwera pa yung milk nila in between. pero tagal mag-bounce back. plano ko na ikulong din para ma-limit ang activity nya. malikot kasi... :-[  last na talaga ito. pag nakaipon ako, spay na talaga next step.

mga sis try to add fish oil not cod liver oil sa diet ng mommy dogs nyo, it should be human grade, without any plant-based oil on the ingredients. Gamit ko is ATC brand, dosage for dogs is 100mg of EPA & DHA per 10lbs. for healthy dogs but you can double the dose if there are health issues. Read the label, most fish oils kasi kahit 900mg, only contains 300mg of combined EPA & DHA, so ang 1 capsule is suitable for a medium-size dog. Small dogs can take 1 capsule/day or every other day. Pag big dogs pwede 2-3x/day. Malalaman naman kung naoverdose---pag lumambot ang poop or nagtae, so bawas ng onti sa serving. Malaki ang natutulong ng omega 3 sa skin and coat nila, actually maraming benefits ang fish oil kaya dapat staple sya sa diet nila. medyo mahirap lang iadminister kasi matapang ang amoy, try to find ways na lang like ipitin sa mashed liver para kainin. pero may dogs din naman na gusto, sanayan lang talaga.

^^ Hay, kasambahay din namin ang reason kung baket nagbuntis si Yuki ko. :( I love her pups, pero nanghihinayang ako sa nangyari kay Yuki. I don't want her to get pregnant narin ulit kahit na super duper cute pa nya mag-breed. Not only is the pregnancy difficult for Yuki... Ang dami ko ring pagod at puyat... Haha!

Sana maka-recover na babies natin sis.

^ Sabi nung friend ng mom in law ko, cod liver oil daw. Buti nalang hindi ko muna binili. Mejo mahal yung nakita ko sa Mercury eh. Sis, wala bang fish oil in liquid form? Mas madali kasi magpa-take ng meds kay Yuki ko pag nasa syringe. Pag capsule, kelangan pa namin lagi hintayin hubby ko kasi sya yung magaling magpa-take ng capsules/tablets sa doggies namin. Hehe.

^malaki ang difference ng cod liver oil and fish oil, liver ang source ng nauna kaya more on vitamin a ito whereas omega 3 naman galing mismo sa body ng fish. mas maraming benefits ang omega 3 than vitamin a pero lagi syang lacking sa diet ng dogs. skin and coat problems ang usual symptoms pag may imbalance sa omega fatty acids, at madalas nacocorrect yan by adding omega 3 supplement in their diet. dogs don't need much vitamin a, pwede na kasi yan makuha sa food at may hypervitaminosis din na tinatawag pag nasobrahan. omega 3 naman wala masyado side effects, loose stools lang pag naoverdose.

Sa ngayon wala pa akong nakikita sa market in liquid form, if you have relatives sa US pwede ka magpabili, pero alam ko may kamahalan siya. Ako naman personally mas gusto ko in pill form kasi pag liquid, mas matapang ang amoy baka mas lalo nilang ayawan. Sobrang lansa nya kasi, para syang hilaw na isda. Yung shih tzu ko hirap na hirap ako painumin kasi ayaw nya talaga. Ang ginagawa ko noon dip ko sandali sa warm water para magsoften saka ko pisilin sa mouth nya para lumabas ang oil. Tapos kahit iforce ko sa bibig nya iluluwa nya. Pero nakahanap ako ng solusyon, inipit ko sa solid gold green tripe, ayun lunok agad. Napapainom ko na sya ng walang hirap. Actually mag-isa lang ako nagaalaga sa mga dogs ko kaya halos lahat ng techniques ginagawa ko haha. Try mo sis ang green tripe kasi wala daw asong umayaw dun. Pwede din ang ground meat or liver kasi maamoy at madali silang iform into balls. No need to wait for hubby, boil then mashed it saka mo ipitin sa loob yung fish oil sigurado hit yan sa dog mo.
