How do you care for an orphaned puppy?

Answer 1

If it is a young puppy it will need to be bottle fed. It is not a easy task as they have to be fed every two hours around the clock. Get yourself a good book on raising puppies. There are also some excellent web sites on bottle feeding pups if you search the subject on line. If you have a friend or good veterinarian near by that can help you get started with the process that can be a huge help. You can also tube feed a puppy. Basically injecting the milk directly into their stomach. There are commercial puppy formulas available or you can make your own. Do not feed it cows milk. Puppies can not digest this type of milk. Goats milk will work if you have access to that.

Answer 2

Respect for taking up an abandoned puppy !

Give him lots of love and attention and raise him how you would raise a normal pup :)

He might be nervous as he has had a bad experience with humans and might not trust them. But if he sees that people are good then a loving relationship will grow and the bond will become extra special !

Answer 3

First, get food and a place for it to sleep. Perhaps send out an ad on Craigslist or a poster incase the owners are looking for it.
