PUPPY formula. It is called Esbilac. They have other brends, but you should use a puppy milk replacer, since it is designed for PUPPIES!!!!!

This is why inexperienced people shouldn't breed. You should have known how many puppies were expected with an ultrasound while she was pregnant, and secondly waiting 3 hours could also be risking the puppies inside her to die and causing a lot complications and even death of the mother. Call your vet, and if the vet says to bring both puppy and mother in...do so carefully and under vet instruction. If there is more puppies inside her, they're now dead, and the mother has risk of becoming septic...and dying.

Wal-mart has formula called "Just Born" comes in ready to feed and powder. Pet stores have other brands. Forget the bottles..medicine dropers and the plunger type work best..less work for the puppy.

puppy formula BUT THINK LONG BEFORE YOU DO. THEY CAN INHAIL THE MILK FROM A BOTTLE AND DIE REALLY EASILY. let momma do it if she can. see a vet asap for support. loosing the baby will cost more then a vet will.

put the pup to sleep. This kind of genetic problem can not be fixed and the pup will drown in its milk.

You might want to take her to the vet. They usually know what to do best.
