Question
hi  sir i have a 15 days old black labrador puppy his mother is not with him and i am giving him 5ml milk per day .is that enough

Answer
Hi Ahsan.  5 ml of mike per day is too little nourishment for a 15 day old puppy.  I suggest feeding your puppy 10 - 20 milliliters per feeding.  You should be able to tell if your puppy is full by the increased size of the abdomen.  If the tummy budges out on the sides - resembling a cow, then he is full.

I also recommend that you purchase a scale - I use a digital postage scale, and get in the habit of weighing your puppy before and after feeding.  Record the weight after each feeding, this way you can accurately determine if the puppy is growing, or loosing weight.

Good luck, and please do not hesitate to contact me if you have additional questions.  Sincerely, Penny D.
