Post by Vicious Kennels »

If the pups are doing good I wouldnt worry about it. As they need more she will most likely make more.

looks like she is doing a good job I am just a worry wert. think a guy that has been running dogs for as long as I have would be used to these things. Got some milk replacement and have been putting it on her food today and even made some up for the pups and not one of them would take any if they were hungry they would take it but thanks for the advice

The milk replacement will help her produce more milk. Glad the pups are doing good.
