It is very important to properly introduce and implement complementary foods for puppies. How and when to do it?

Start feeding puppies

Weaning is a critical period in a baby’s life, so you need to carefully approach the issue of feeding. It is necessary to exclude any changes in the diet of a lactating bitch and puppy.

The puppy should be offered one new type of food once a day at the beginning of complementary foods. It is advisable to start with fermented milk products: low-fat cottage cheese and kefir. This is necessary so that the puppy gets used to this complementary food, and you make sure that it is well absorbed. Signs that this is not the case are changes in the stool (diarrhea).

All food offered by puppies must be at the temperature of the bitch’s milk, i.e. 37 – 38 degrees.

At five to six weeks, the puppy should have 3 milk feedings and 2 meat feedings per day. Meat can be replaced once a week with boiled sea fish, poultry or rabbit meat.

Boiled yolk can be given once a week. After meat and sour-milk products have been introduced into the puppy’s complementary foods, you can introduce professional super premium dry foods in a soaked form into complementary foods.

At the age of 6 – 7 weeks there is a complete weaning from the mother.
