Beaphar Lactol Puppy Milk

Beaphar Lactol Puppy Milk is a powdered milk replacer for unweaned puppies. It can be used for hand-rearing and as a supplementary feed alongside the mother's milk, or to help puppies move gradually onto solid puppy food during weaning.

The formula contains DHA (docosahexaenoic acid). It can also be used as a supplementary feed for weaned puppies and adult dogs during pregnancy, lactation or convalescence, following the product's feeding guidance. Ask your veterinary surgeon for advice when hand-rearing puppies or feeding an unwell animal.

Prepare with warm water that has previously been boiled, stirring until the powder dissolves. Allow the milk to cool to approximately 38°C before feeding young puppies, and use clean, sterile feeding equipment. Follow the dilution and feeding table supplied with your particular pack, using its own scoop. Daily quantities must be divided across the recommended feeds, including overnight feeds where directed.

Weigh young puppies daily to monitor growth. During weaning, mix prepared Lactol with a little puppy food and gradually increase the solid food while reducing the milk, following the pack guidance. Keep fresh drinking water available.

Prepared milk can be refrigerated for up to 24 hours and should be reheated to approximately 38°C before feeding young puppies. Always read the full label before use.

Available pack sizes: 250g, 500g, 1kg and 2kg.
