Question
I have just received a 5 week old pitbull puppy and i am not too sure of what to feed it. Should I buy dogfood/puppyfood??

Answer
Hi:  You should choose a good pup food.  You can soak the dog food ( dry kibble ) in some water.... Let it sit for 10 minutes to make the dry kibble easy to chew.  Give about 1/8 of a cup 3 x per day... He may not eat it all.  Make sure the new baby is drinking well.

You can also buy some puppy formula and give that to him rather than water.... Just do this for a 2-3 weeks.  He will take in what he wants.

Make sure you get to the vet and do a base line check up...
Just to give you an idea of his health and wellness.


Best Wishes on this little new Addition!!!


Thanks for your question.
