As much as possible grab the runt and put it on a nipple and make sure it eats until its full and another pup doesn't push it off to the side. If you can do this at least 5 times a day, by the time its around 3 weeks old it should be strong enough to hold its own. if it doesn't eat or looks sick call a vet
