Feeding Your Puppy

Consistency is important so feed your puppy what he ate before you adopted him for a few days. Then you can change to a food of your choice. Don’t rush this transition or you could upset your puppy’s stomach. Select a high-quality fully nutritional puppy food and mix it with his other food. Adjust the ratio over time. Canned dog food is high in fat so consider a dry or semi-moist kibble instead. Review the puppy food package to understand recommended amounts so you don’t overfeed your puppy. Don’t give your puppy table scraps. He could suffer with diarrhea from eating human food and some of these foods can be dangerous or fatal to your puppy.  And feeding your dog table scraps will encourage begging. Use dog-safe treats sparingly for training and for dental hygiene only. Ensure that your puppy has access to fresh, clean water at all times. Learn more from your vet clinic San Antonio, TX.
