Nutri-Vet® MILK REPLACEMENT for Puppies is formulated as a nutritional supplement when the mother’s milk supply is inadequate or as the sole ration for orphan puppies. It contains essential amounts of protein, fat and carbohydrates plus vitamins, minerals and amino acids that newborn puppies need. It is readily accepted
by newborn puppies and produces excellent growth rates and weight gain. It can also be used to help meet the increased nutritional requirements during dogs’ gestation or pregnancy or in convalescing or elderly canines. If possible, puppies should nurse from their mother for the first two days of their lives to receive nutrient rich colostrum. Mother’s colostrum helps strengthen the immune system and contains growth factors to stimulate protein synthesis, fat utilization, and cell growth.

Key Components of Milk Replacement for Puppies:
• Colostrum is defined as the first 24 hours of milk flow following birth and is a highly concentrated mixture of large protein antibody molecules, vitamins, electrolytes,
and nutrients. Dogs pass the majority of the mother’s antibodies to the newborn via colostrum.
• Whey protein concentrate is a source of the essential amino acids that are the building blocks for healthy muscles, skin and other body tissue.
• Dried skim milk contains amino acids and is high in soluble vitamins and minerals.
• Egg yolk is a major source of vitamins and minerals and contains all of the egg’s fat and cholesterol and almost half of the protein.
• Lecithin is a rich source of phospholipids vital to proper cell membrane function and integrity.
• Choline is a B-vitamin essential for nerve impulse transmission.
