Default Having Troubles

My situation is similar - but in another way - I just got Sophie, who is 8 weeks old. I naturally assumed she was weened... I know, I know... don't assume such a thing. As we were leaving the home with her, I realized the breeder was putting the puppies all back into the crate with the mama and I mentioned how sweet - you know? And she said, well yeah, they are still nursing - right up until they leave her - that is what's most healthy. she handed me a sample of dog food they had been supposedly eating that my full grown GERMAN SHORTHAIR could be eating, so there is just now way. So anyway, got her some tiny bites and some soft food to mix in, etc., etc., she want nothing to do with it - she barely even drinks out of the water. All she wants to do is be curled up in my clothes with me somewhere on my body. Do I need to bottle feed and ween her to dog food, since it looks like that was possibly untrue - or will she come around and just eat?
