Puppies eating food

how often should 6 week old puppies be eating softened puppy food

Answer #1

Khat, you would feed a 6 weeks old puppy only once!!!

I would reccomend 3-4 times, small portions there bellies are small. And you may leave out some dry puppy food so they can try it out. Keep in mind they would leave in two more weeks to go to there new home so they should be on a good schuedule.

Answer #2

Six weeks old. well im in vet science class right now and I would say leave little portions out of each soft and hard food out. for a free choice diet. puppies need lots of nutrients as well so its best if you give them puppy food not normal dog food. :) hope I helped.

Answer #3

At six weeks, they are getting ready to go to homes…A “3 times a day” schedule is what they most likely will be going to, when they leave. Scheduling does wonders for housebreaking…Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner…

Also, leaving wet food out is taking a chance that it could become tainted…those little tummies couldn’t handle semi rotten food.

Answer #4

about 1 or 2 times a day.
