∙ 10y agoYou cannot feed your dog anything to induce lactation - this is a hormone-driven process. However, if you have a lactating dam with puppies, you should provide free-choice high-quality puppy food for her to eat. She will need a lot of calories, since she is eating enough to support herself plus all of her puppies.

Can you give a puppies cows milk until i can get a substitute?
dont even give puppies milk give them water there not cats Young puppies do need milk to survive but cow milk is not good for them. They need either milk re-placer made for puppies or goats milk. Cow milk is hard for them to digest and they will not do well on it. If you search the internet there are several recipes for home made milk re-placer for pups. It is challenging to bottle raise puppies but it can be done.

Should you give puppies milk?
Puppies are like human babies and you should phone your vet for a formula if the puppies are still feeding from the mother or she can't feed them. If they are eating puppy food now, then no, you should give them milk because it can cause diarrhea in puppies (or kittens.) I'm sorry, but i disagree with the above answer. I raised Great Pyrenees puppies for 22 years and I always fed my puppies extra milk and it did not give them dirrhea. Wormy pups are the ones that have the dirrhea because the parasites keep the intestines distressed and anykind of food change will cause this. If it's a big litter especially, even though mom is still feeding them the extra milk helps take the load off of her. I had puppies when I was younger whose mom died the vet we contacted said we could use milk but in a recipe for puupie milk.......heres how to make it One cup milk One egg one tbsp oil mix this and feed through a dropper or you can get a bottle from a ranch store made for livestock. goats milk is always a safe choice
