Question
my husband and i just rescued 4 puppies. they are very skinny and very skidish what should i do to help them mellow on and help them gain wait they are only 6 weks old

Answer
Weight gain will happen over time, but find a high premium kibble with a good amount of protein and fat (usually 30% protein, 20% fat).  You may need to wet it with water to help them out although they should be weaned and ready for solid foods at this point.  Other than that, spend a lot of time with them, let them play and explore and realize that they are growing and changing significantly.
