Who is it for?
This milk replacer is made for puppies who are orphaned, rejected by the dam, part of an oversized litter, or need supplemental feeding to thrive alongside nursing. It's a practical tool for breeders, foster families, and rescue organizations, as well as first-time caregivers raising a dog puppy from its earliest days.
Caregivers in the GTA often pick this up while searching for puppy yoga near me events, comparing dog puppy for sale listings, or assembling supplies before a new litter arrives. If you're caring for multiple species, the Grober Pets - Kitten Gro Milk Replacer covers orphaned kittens, and the Raw Performance - Puppy Support Dog Supplement is a useful pairing as your puppy transitions toward solid food. Multi-pet households welcoming a new puppy may also consider the Feliway - Classic Diffuser to help resident cats settle.
Feeding & use
Mix the powder with warm water according to the package instructions and feed at body temperature using a clean bottle or syringe sized to the puppy. Prepare fresh formula at each feeding and refrigerate any unused reconstituted milk as directed on the label.
Feeding frequency depends on age and weight — very young pups typically need small, frequent feedings around the clock, tapering as they grow. Consult your veterinarian for a schedule specific to your puppy, especially for newborns under two weeks of age.
How long should puppies stay on a milk replacer?
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.
