Re: Help!!

I'm not sure if you know about the dietary needs of a puppy, but dogs eat meat, Guinea pigs are STRICK herivores therefore no meat, or any part of meat should be in their diet. Puppy milk has the nutrients the mother would be taking in from the food she would be eating, including meat products. Puppy milk should NEVER be given to a Guinea pig. You should be feeding Critical Care along with hay, pellets, and veggies. Guinea pigs are born with teeth and open eyes so can eat and drink normally right from the get go. They are born this way because they are prey animals, and should they be seperated from their mother because they were attacked by a predator, they can still survive on their own. Please consult with a new vet immediately for your Guinea pigs sake.
