How do dogs feed their puppies?

For the first few weeks, puppies are nursed on milk produced by the mother dog. As the pups develop they need to start transitioning to solid food. If assistance from the breeder is not available to produce gruel for the puppies to eat, the mother dog will eat and partially digest food which she then vomits for the puppies to eat. This sustains the puppies while they practice eating solid food until they are able to digest it themselves.


How do you feed the puppies if the mother dog does not?

If the mother dog is unable to feed the puppies, you can consult a veterinarian for guidance on bottle-feeding them with puppy milk replacer. It is important to feed the puppies every 2-4 hours, ensure they are warm and clean, and monitor their weight gain and overall health closely. Additionally, seeking advice from a professional animal caregiver can help ensure the puppies' proper nutrition and care.
