Topic Dog Boards / Breeding / How much Liquid Life Aid?
- By Mooster Date 29.10.09 20:07 UTC
............ok, so about 12 days to go before whelping and my house is now looking like a stage set for Emergency Ward 10! LOL!!

Following on from all the good advice I have had from fellow CD'ers I have had my last parcel arrive today with the Liquid Life Aid. As its mainly used for Sheep, Pigs & Calves and makes no mention of puppies can anyone help with how much to give ? I have a small gundog breed  - hopefully I wont need to use the Life Aid - but I just want to be organised in case its required.

Thanks once again in advance!

Hi, if you need to use liquid life aid to rehydrate a puppy, you dilute it as instructed on the box 8mls LA to 100mls water and then give 1ml per ounce bodyweight, i.e a 10oz puppy would want 10ml life aid, any diluted lifeaid must be kept in the fridge and disgarded after 24 hrs,hope this helps.

I agree with almost all of this post, the only exception being:
8 ml LLA TO 92 ML water to make 100 ML of solution!
