8┃ Perfecting Hand-Rearing & Techniques for Tube Feeding Puppies

Worried about losing a puppy in those fragile early days or unsure how to spot and support a newborn who’s struggling? 

In this episode, we delve into the realities of newborn care, from recognising congenital issues to navigating fading puppy syndrome and managing large litters. We challenge the outdated idea of a “runt” and explore what early abnormalities really mean for a puppy’s future.

You’ll learn how folic acid can reduce the risk of cleft palate, why hydration often matters more than milk, and how to fine-tune your feeding approach using tools like miracle nipples and silicone feeders. 

For guidance that reflects your breed, background and breeding mindset, join the Brew Crew and get practical, experience-based support from breeders who’ve raised litters through it all.
