How much and how often do you feed a 8 week old puppy?
When you first receive your 8 week old puppy you will be feeding him/her 3/4 of a cup 3 times a day (Purina Pro Plan Puppy food for Large Breed) soaked in hot water until it softens. Keep doing this for about 1 week, then taper off on time of soaking so eventually he/she will be eating dry food with a little water.
What should an 8 week old puppy eat?
Once your puppy has been weaned off of their mother's milk (around 8 weeks), you can start feeding them soft foods like canned or dehydrated dog foods (if you aren't sure what that is, read our complete guide here ). You won't want to start feeding your pup any hard foods until they are at least 9-10 weeks old.
