Meet the nutritional needs of your puppy
At 6-8 weeks, the puppies are fully weaned and eating 4-5 meals a day. For the first few meals of your puppy, be sure to give him what he is accustomed. A sudden change of diet could lead to stomach problems. So, if you change the food your puppy, do it gradually over several days.
(If your dog has stomach problems due to stress caused by the adoption, give plain water to drink for a few meals, then a few meals that include a rice bowl, until that he is ready to consume a normal diet. If the vomiting or diarrhea continues, take him to the vet.)

The food also provides all the right nutrients in the right amount for his bones, joints and muscles grow. Smallmouth and your puppy may be unable to chew pieces or cookies designed for adults.
