ANSWER: Hi Matthew: Are you in the USA??? I know you can get much better than the Alpo in the USA.. Let me know ???
I can suggest a much better food for your new baby.
Also, you can buy dry food and soak it .. ( a teaspoon of wet food "on top" is fine)
Too much wet food is not good.
Please answer my questions... Thanks.

QUESTION: yes i am in the usa . i stay in nc
ANSWER: Ok, Let's get this puppy kid off of the Alpo ASAP... Not very good
at all. It is a fair to poor rated food... ( In my book)
I know they have cute commercials and great marketing campagns!
How about some Chicken Soup for the Puppy's Soul?
This is a great food... A rated. ( average priced) ... You should be able to find this at the local pet store. If you can't find it then let me know.. I have others that I feel are very good, too.
Your pup can eat this until he is about 9-10 months old... After that, you need to go to Adult food. ( we can talk about that, down the road)
You will want to wet this dry food with a small amount of water. You can place 3 to 4 tablespoons of warm water on top... Mix it and wait about 3-4 minutes. This will moisten the dry food up for your pup. It is fine to give some wet food on top of the dry. You can go with 2 teaspoons of wet food, if you would like.
A good wet food ( canned food) is Solid Gold ( any flavor)
Other good brands are: Eagle Pack , Innova, Wellness Formula....
All the canned foods, that I mentioned, are found at any pet store.
Next, a good supplement is a Plus for any new pup. Many breeders will send you home with a Sample of NuVET Plus wafers.
Your kid will need one wafer treat per day. This will help him to grow strong and healthy. An Immune System Booster.
**** Can't be found in the stores...
****Only sold by breeders and Vet offices.
The vet marks it up 45% or more:
YOU can buy thru the maufacturer at the wholesale price.
NuVET Plus
I would start with the 60 count .. ( one per day and this will last 2 months. I believe it is 39.99 for the 60 count bottle.

QUESTION: how often should i take a puppy outside to use the bathroom . and are there any suggestions to what i can put a puppy in at night so they want get into mischief while i sleep at night
AnswerHi Again: I have a new pup here at my home. I take her out every 2 hours ( when I am able).
When I am in bed or not home she is in the bathroom with a baby gate.
Also, she has newspaper down when behind the baby gate.
You can put wee wee pads down or newspaper for night time use. Your pup may or may not use the pads..
The key is to take them out as often as you can, when awake.( or at home)
Have fun!!!!!!
Not easy but it will all work out.
