| At work - need Feeding help asap please Hi everyone! A driver at work just walked in with a very young Shih Tzu puppy (can't even be 8 weeks...hardly any teeth). He was abandoned at a truck stop. Anyway, help..what can a puppy 8 weeks or younger eat? Help! I can run to the store on lunch.

| Get some rice cereal, or maybe some baby meat in a jar? Anything that the little guy can eat! Try a variety of items.

| Yeah, my boss lady is going to take it home and by the vet. She gets off work at 2pm so it will work. She doesn't have any other animals either. But until she can get out..he seems hungry as he's gnawing on my finger. (He's asleep right now) I will get that baby food cereal and meat.

| I would probably get some baby food, just make sure it doesn't have any onion powder.

♥Trained by my pups♥ Donating YT 500 Club Member | I know this isn't idea thing but wet dog food like Cesar puppy food works great on young pups. And gradually mix in some kibbles

| Thanks so much, y'all! I actually did pick up a little thing of ceasar but I got some baby food meat to try first. Just water to drink, right?

Donating YT 4000 Club Member | Oh, that makes me so angry! You have to wonder what type of person would abandon a small puppy like that. Ugh.

My boss lady is going to try to post some stuff in the area about it. I have a sneaking suspicion that this wasn't just a drop off. This one is full blooded just from MY non-expert eye. I bet it was stolen or something..I don't know. Not a great pic but look how precious. Sleeping in a box next to my desk here at work: Haha..and yes, that is a doggie toy with him..I just happen to keep extra toys at the office and sneak some home gradually for Mandie and Shelby LOL!!!
