The first 48 hours of a puppy's life are essential to guarantee its survival, development and quality of life.

Optimum nutrition is vital in these early days. Breast milk will always be the best option, however this may not always be the case and we may need to provide the best possible substitute.

The first thing to consider when selecting a breast milk substitute is the type of milk powder. In the market we will find both skimmed milk powder and whey protein powders.

The first is simply cow's milk with the fat skimmed and then dehydrated. However, the latter concentrates the protein fraction and provides an improved essential amino acid profile.

Lactol contains this source of protein. The dehydration process is also vitally important, as severe dehydration damages many of the protein molecules and makes the resulting powder less nutritionally valuable.

The ultrafiltration process used to make Lactol, followed by low-temperature evaporation, is far more beneficial, as it concentrates the proteins and preserves even the most fragile immunoglobulin molecules.
