Probably another old wives tale white vinegar rubbed into the bitchs tits works very well to tighten the loose saggy skin teats back up first time I have heard of mixing it with Epsom salts though Quote Link to post Share on other sites
netrigger 568 Posted August 9, 2013 Report Share Posted August 9, 2013 That's what I and others have used in the past to scatter the milk .. worth a try ? The Kes tablets were quite common years ago and were good and were easy to source as there was plenty of Sows up hear Spitting Weans out .. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

sandymere 8,263 Posted August 12, 2013 Report Share Posted August 12, 2013 My bitch staffy had a phantom whilst the terrier was pregnant, the second the first pup whelped she started lactating. We took her to the vets with the pups and new mum the vet said if she will allow it let her feed the pups as-well (obviously separating the real mother away to prevent fighting) result was massively healthy pups who grew so fast getting the colostrum and milk from two mothers it was impressive. after a while we introduced the pups to the rest of the pack both bitches were very protective of them and the staff even seemed to take a subservient beta role to the terrier bitch. Neither would let the males anywhere near for sometime. I know this is a little off topic but do you not think phantoms may be an evolutionary throwback to wolves and wet-nursing??? Very likely.
