Today my half beagle dog founed a baby possum in the yard. My 10 year old son took it away from him and has decided he wants to keep it. It is about 4" long, not including its tail. I told my son that we would put the dogs up tonight and put the baby where the dog found it and the momma possum would come back tonight to get it. Well the dogs went up at dark and about 10 p m I let them out to relieve their bladders and as luck would have it, that was the exact time the momma was out there. She ran off of course and so far, has not come back. I gave the baby possum some pediolyte today but it will eventually need something more substantial. My little boy loves animals and he wants to keep this little critter alive. Does anyone know what we could feed it with a medicine dropper to try and save it? Thanks.
