Can you overfeed a 10 week old puppy?

A puppy's digestive system is very delicate, and packing it with too much food is a recipe for irritation. Puppies who overeat will often vomit to relieve pressure on their distended stomachs. If your furry friend manages to keep the food down, it may reappear in a few hours in the form of diarrhea.

What should I feed my 10 week old puppy?

Puppies that are 6 to 9 weeks old should be fed a blend of dry food and milk replacer. At 9 to 10 weeks, large breed puppies typically should be off the milk replacer and eating dry food. At 12 to 13 weeks, small breed puppies typically should be off the milk replacer and eating only dry food.

How much dry food should I feed my puppy?

A simple rule of thumb is to feed your puppy 20g per 1kg of body weight per day. So, if you have a puppy weighing 5kg, they will need 100g per day.
