Beaphar Lactol Puppy Milk – 250g

Beaphar Lactol Puppy Milk is a complete milk replacer specifically designed for newborn puppies, orphaned litters, or as a supplement for large litters where the mother's milk is insufficient. Unlike cow’s milk, which is too high in lactose and lacks the necessary fats and proteins for canines, Lactol is scientifically formulated to provide the precise caloric density and nutrient balance a puppy needs to flourish.

Key Benefits:

• Brain & Vision Development (DHA): Naturally enriched with Docosahexaenoic Acid (DHA). This essential fatty acid is crucial for the development of cognitive function and sight in growing puppies.

• Superior Protein Quality: Made from high-quality whey protein, which is ultra-filtered to ensure it is highly digestible—critical for preventing stomach upsets in fragile newborns.

• Complete Vitamin & Mineral Blend: Contains a balanced spectrum of essential vitamins, minerals, and trace elements to support rapid skeletal growth and a developing immune system.

• Easy to Dissolve: The powder is designed to mix quickly and smoothly with warm water, ensuring no clumps block the feeding teat.

• Multi-Use Formula: While essential for newborns, it is also a fantastic high-protein supplement for pregnant or lactating bitches, and senior dogs recovering from illness.

Why Professionals Trust Lactol:

For over a century, breeders and vets have relied on Lactol's unique production process. By using low-temperature drying, the delicate protein molecules are preserved, meaning the milk stays nutritionally "alive" and more bioavailable to the puppy's system compared to high-heat processed alternatives.

Ideal For:

• Orphaned Puppies: Providing a total, balanced food source from day one.

• Large Litters: Assisting the mother by "top-up" feeding the smaller or weaker puppies.

• The Weaning Process: Helping puppies transition to solids by mixing the milk with puppy kibble to create an easy-to-lap mash.

• Recovering Dogs: Offering an easy-to-digest, nutrient-dense liquid for dogs that have lost their appetite.

Preparation & Feeding:

• Mixing Ratio: Add 2 level scoops (approx. 4.5g per scoop) of powder to 30ml of warm (not boiling) water. Stir or shake until fully dissolved.

• Feeding Temperature: Serve at body temperature (38°C). Always test the temperature on the inside of your wrist before feeding.

• Feeding Frequency: Newborns require feeding every 2–3 hours. Consult the feeding chart on the tub for volume based on age and breed size.

• Storage: Once prepared, the milk can be stored in a refrigerator for up to 24 hours but must be gently reheated before use.
