... it looked to me as if he was not tolerating the milk replacer (tummy upset)...
I have no idea if this applies to puppy milk replacer, but I know LOTS and LOTS of people are having trouble with the current formulations of "large animal" milk replacer. The kind you buy in a 25lb or bigger bag to feed calves, kids, lambs, foals, etc. Apparently some manufacturers have decided to forgo using powdered dairy milk and are substituting soy instead. The soy is wreaking havoc on the digestive systems of the newborns.
Might be something to look for on your puppy milk ingredient list, and discuss with your vet.
I am praying it all works out and Graham is able to be a spoiled rotten house dog!
