I grind my Poochi’s food up in a blender and wet it with a little water. I feed twice a day. But my Mom still gets in the box once or twice a day. So I would check with your Vet, or follow the directions on the Puppy chow bag. At 4 weeks twice a day would do. 4 weeks is old enough to wean. She will be alright.

I know it is not ideal but weaning at 4 weeks is not uncommon

Oh whatever you do, don’t bottle feed her at 4 weeks.
