Hi, My Concern Is Can We Feed Lactogen To Puppies.

Hi, my concern is can we feed lactogen to puppies.
I have a boxer breed pet, it has delivered 9 puppies last week, she's bit weak and she doesn't have enough milk production for all the puppies because of less nutrition and dehydration we lost one pup.
Kindly suggest can we introduce lactogen for the puppies as substitute for their mothers milk at least once or twice in a day and if yes what would be the quantity of lactogen should be fed (now currently they're fed every 3hours once as vet suggested).
TIA.
Regards
Bharath.
