WARMTH IS NEEDED
BY BULLDOG PUPPIES
High Death Rate Can BE- Cut
Down by a Little Care on
Part Of Breeder.

The exceptional and extraordinary
death rate among young bulldog pup
pies IL a matter Of great concern to
the average fsncier. The better the quail
ity Of a mans stock the greater is the
difficulty experienced in obtaining and
raising puppies. Given the fact that
puppies are born strong and healthy. for
those born weakly must be expected to
die, IL is entirely the fault Of the owner
IL the puppies die. or course II II 0ot
possible for a breeder to raise puppies
without losing . small percentage ~
them, but II ~ q fact that those who
lose a greater part of their puppies
have only themselves to blame. 1t may
not be wilful neglect. but II is due
to neglect nevertheless.
The enormous number OF puppies dy-
Ing within a few days of their birth is
shocking n the majority Of them die
through not being kept sufficiently warm
Puppies for no reason whatever seem to
waste away and die within A day or
two after birth. They are freely termed
bad doors. Why. however. should they
be bad doors? " they do not suckle
properly there must he some reason and
in 90 per cent. Of the oises where
healthy puppies refuse to suckle IT Is
because they are not kept warm enough.
Nothing upsets young puppies more than
this and once they start on the wrong
road Il IS difficult to save them.
Try keeping puppies warm and il
will be easy to see the change in them.
Frequently bitches are found that are
bad mothers and will lie on their pup
pies, killing them in this way, but these
are few and far between. Usually II
