Special needs of bitches when nursing the puppies
- When the bitch is feeding the puppies, the adequate intake of water is very important.
- 78% of milk consists of water. The biggest need for water is 3-4 weeks after giving birth
- In case the bitch is not drinking enough, it might limit the production of milk
- Extra rehydration is recommended for lactating bitches
Special needs of the puppies
- The body temperature of a dog rises quickly
- Dogs dehydrate at a much quicker rate than humans do, because they have sweat glands only on their nose and feet

- Warm weather increases the possibility for dehydration but it can occur also during winter time !
- For the wellbeing of all dogs, it is important to teach them the drinking routines already at young age
