Need some Help!

So the first day i had fruitloop the pet store was closed so i couldnt get puupy formula. i made some make shift pedialite (sugar, water, and salt) he just loved it. now i got the formula and he just doesnt seem to enjoy it. My questions are with the formula should i still be giving him the pedialite? and how or is it possible i can make the formula more appealing? is it something im doing??

LOL:rotfl :rotfl :rotfl :rotfl

I can only laugh because I had the same problem this weekend.

A little one I got was VERY dehydrated. She was subQed and given only pedialite at first. Cherry flavored it was.

When it was time to start the Esbilac, she was not interested. Finally she has given up and started to eat.

That little girl could suck the shine off a bumper. (OK, so I am old enough to remember shiny bumpers made of metal that really did something besides shatter)

Lets face it, sweet beats milk any time. A kid is a kid, skinned or fur.

When she is hungry she will eat.

No--absolutely not. You shouldn't mix the fomula with Pedialyte. That's cure about his nesting in your hoodie :D

You can mix a little yogart and heavy cream into the formula.....

Yes...pictures please...:D

A little yogurt is okay, but I'd avoid the whipping cream. It's too rich and can cause bloat. If she's eating the formula okay as it is, I wouldn't add anything to it.
