    Di-vetelact is good too. You should be able to pick some up from a vet, along with some bottles suitable for week old puppies. It's going to be quite a big job without mum around (how many did she have?).

    You'll probably need to bring them inside now as you'll need to make sure they are warm (puppies this age can have difficulties regulating their temperature, much like newborns), make sure they are toileted regularly as they won't be able to go themselves, and fed every 3-4 hours. It'll be pretty full on bottle feeding them until they are able to drink frm a bowl in a few weeks. The next 2-3 months are going to be quite intense!
