DETAILS:
Nutri-Vet Milk Replacement powder contains essential amounts of protein, fat, and carbohydrates plus vitamins, minerals, and amino acids that newborn puppies need. It can also be used as a nutritional supplement for pregnant, nursing, convalescing or senior dogs.
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.
DIRECTIONS FOR USE:
Newborns
