Raise and care for sick puppies

Taking care of sick puppies is a very challenging task. As we all know, puppies are like newborn babies. You must know things about: crying when they are hungry, educating the puppies or teaching them the new environment.

Tips and ideas to help with your sick newborn puppy

How to stop sick puppies from crying at night, if the dogs are away from their mom, here are some tips.
1.) A puppy is always cold, a puppy’s temperature should be between 101 and 115 degrees. Buy a heating pad or get a heating lamp, this will help the puppies stay warm.
2.) Hydration is one of the most important things for puppies, because if the puppy is sick, it dehydrates pretty quickly. Feed them milk and check for diarrhea. Never give your puppy chocolate. This will make them very sick and potentially fatal.
3.) Incessant crying could be tip 1 or 2, but sometimes puppies can get constipated. Put some Vaseline on your finger and rub the puppy’s rectum. Preparation H can work quite well with those kinds of rear problems. To prevent the puppies from crying, buy a night light that flashes, the puppies will be curious and this will keep them busy.

Dogs will start to whimper or howl, this could be because they are hungry, cold or need to go outside. Remember that puppies will urinate a lot due to the amount of milk they drink per day, so don’t punish dogs.

Do not reward your puppy or pick him up too much, this will spoil him and when you want to leave him in his crate he will start to cry. Buy them some toys, some that make noise, they love it and they will be busy all night.
