Answer #1

Where’s its mother? What brand of milk are you using? Are you mixing it according to the instructions? Are you warming it up in the microwave? Have you stimulated his / her genitals with a towel to initiate urination and BMs?

Answer #2

Breeders use a feeding tube to force feed pups that seemingly don’t want to live. There may be something congenital wrong with this pup, that makes sucking impossible (a cleft palate, a jaw malformation, etc), or something on his insides that isn’t normal.

If you aren’t knowledgable about the how to’s and where for’s of having a litter of puppies, then there is very little you can do to save this pup.

Answer #3

try putting the milk in a syringe and feeding it bt wheres the mother???????????????
