Your New Puppy will come to you eating Natural Balance Roll - Beef or lamb and
also Purina Pro Plan Puppy Small breed, chicken and rice kibble. On occasion,
he/she will eat Science Diet Puppy - Chicken and Rice Canned Food mixed in.
Because it is essential that your puppy get plenty of nourishment, I recommend
you continue feeding whatever he or she will eat. You do need to feed at least 3
times a day though, prefer 4 times until he/she is 12 weeks old, then 3 times a
day until about 6 months, then twice a day for the rest of their lives. Approx
1/2 - 1 cup a day, depending on weight of puppy.
My suggestion would be to try the crumbled Natural Balance for Breakfast and
Dinner and and the dry food as lunch and a light snack at Bedtime. You can leave
dry food out during this puppy period as well, unless you find your puppy eating all
the time.
Water should be made available at all times except when crated for his naps.
Remember to provide plenty of bones, hooves, pig ears (NO RAWHIDE) and toys
to your puppy to chew on during puppy stage.
My preferences toward treats run along the line of fresh healthy foods... such
as a piece of Chicken Breast, piece of Ham, piece of cheese, a green bean and
perhaps a piece of the Natural Balance Rolled Food. I do not like all the
processed treats on the market. Your puppy will learn the quickest and work the
best for you when there is something he really wants in it for him/her.
