Grober Pets - Puppy Gro Milk Replacer
Description
TL;DR: Grober Pets Puppy Gro Milk Replacer is a nutritionally complete powdered formula for puppies aged 0–8 weeks who are orphaned, rejected, or need supplemental feeding. Canadian-made and fortified with essential vitamins and minerals, it mixes quickly in warm water for breeders, rescues, and new puppy caregivers.

Who is it for?
This milk replacer is made for puppies who are orphaned, rejected by the dam, part of an oversized litter, or simply need supplemental feeding to thrive. It's a reliable tool for breeders, foster families, rescue organizations, and first-time puppy caregivers in the GTA — including those who find us through puppy yoga North York events, the local puppy sphere Toronto community, or anyone comparing dog puppy price and early-care supplies.
If you're also caring for other young or sensitive animals, you may find Grober Pets - Kitten Gro Milk Replacer useful for orphaned kittens, or pair this with Raw Performance - Puppy Support Dog Supplement as your puppy transitions toward solid food. Multi-pet households may also consider Feliway - Classic Diffuser to help resident cats adjust to a new puppy in the home.
Feeding & use
Mix the powder with warm water according to the package instructions and feed at body temperature using a clean bottle or syringe suited to the puppy's size. Prepare fresh formula for each feeding and refrigerate any unused reconstituted milk as directed on the label.
Feeding frequency depends on the puppy's age and weight — very young pups typically need small, frequent feedings around the clock, gradually tapering as they grow. Consult your veterinarian for a feeding schedule specific to your puppy, especially for newborns under two weeks of age.
How long should puppies stay on a milk replacer?
Grober Pets Puppy Gro is intended for puppies from birth through about 8 weeks of age, with gradual weaning onto puppy food usually starting around 3–4 weeks. Your veterinarian can confirm the right transition timing for your litter.
Available for same-day pickup at our North York, Toronto storefront, or ships Canada-wide.
