I've got a box full of puppies...

My old gyp had 9 puppies this weekend. One of them died yesterday, but the rest are doing fine. I can't wait to start running them and they are only 3 days old. Nothing like the anticipation of seeing your pups start. Just had to brag a little on my puppies....

Do you guys feed your females any kind of milk suppliment when they are nursing?

Tobey, What would be considered a high calory count for dogs? I am feeding a 22% protien and 10% fat feed right now. Sounds like I may need to up the two a little if some feed puppy chow.

Congrats on the pups Boomer! Good luck with them. I don't feed supplements, just all the dog food they can eat.
