Do you have a puppy that needs formula milk? Are you unsure of how to make it yourself at home? Look no further (oops, I just broke the first rule), because we’ve got all the tips and tricks you need to make delicious, nutritious puppy formula milk.

Before we dive into the recipe, let’s talk about why homemade puppy formula is a great option for your furry friend.

Why Homemade Puppy Formula is Fantastic

1. It’s Cost Effective:

Puppy food can be quite expensive, and if your little pup has an upset tummy or isn’t ready for solid foods yet (aww), then high-quality dog formulas are even pricier! By making your own puppy formula milk from scratch with ingredients at home (2. which we’ll show you shortly) , not only do YOU control what goes in it but 3. also save money compared to commercial brands .

4.It Establishes Stronger Bond:

Making something special just for your pup helps strengthen your bond while introducing them gently and positively into the world around them.

So without any more delay onto:

To begin with this recipe(5.,totally not rocket science) , there are some things required which include:

  • 6 oz evaporated goat’s milk
  • 2 oz boiled water
  • 1 raw egg yolk
    (Tip: Use organic eggs as they are safer)
  • 1 tbsp Karo syrup

Now that those items have been gathered their combination is done by following these simple steps:

Step One: Mix together Evaporated Goat Milk & Boiled Water

Firstly(6., now pay attention here fella’) , mix six ounces of evaporated goat’s milk along with two ounces (7.you wouldn’t want too much or too less) of boiled water together in a small bowl. Ensure that both ingredients integrate properly and the mixture comes out smooth without even a lump.

Step Two: Add Raw Egg Yolk

Next up, we need to add one raw egg yolk into the mixture (8. remember eggs should be organic fella’) . Make sure it is appropriately stirred so that there are no lumps or clumping as they can cause stomach issues for your doggy friend.

Step Three: Pour Karo Syrup & Stir

Finally, pour one tablespoon of Karo syrup into the mix then stir again until once more everything has been combined(9.told ya’, not rocket science). Some folks may wonder if this addition of corn syrup could harm their puppy, but experts say it’s safe when given in moderation; you just have to make sure not to overdo it.

And voila! Your homemade puppy formula milk is ready!

But 10.hold on my curious mate, before we wrap things up let’s talk about how much/often should you give this nutritious drink?

How Much Puppy Formula Milk Should You Give at Once?

Here’s a breakdown of amount recommended by our furry friends’ pediatricians:

  • Newborn puppies (1 week): 2-4 mL per feeding
  • Puppies aged 2 weeks: 6-12mL
  • Puppies aged three weeks or older every four hours : Gradually increase portion size from1 tsp – 4 tsp per pound (every pet weighs differently)

Last but not least, 11.if you’re concerned with its shelf life buddy, here’s what you need to know:

Item Storage Method Shelf Life
Bottled Formula Refrigerator (35°F-40°F) 24 Hours Max

Once opened.

Here are some bonus tips that will come handy for fur-parenting:

1. Combining Puppy Food with Homemade Milk Primer

Puppies grow up fast, and if you feel like your pup is ready for solid food after one or two weeks, then mixing a small quantity of either dry/wet dog chow would do wonders when added into their DIY formula(13.truth be told) .

2. Water Does Wonder

Drinking water helps puppies digest solid foods better without giving them any constipation issues. So make sure you have fresh drinking water available in easy access all times (14again pretty less stressful than rocket science huh?)

3. Consult a Board-Certified Vet

As an extra precautionary measure, always consult your vet while making this milk primer since they can best guide you through dietary requirements according to puppy breed(15.wise advice too!) .
