Usually nature has it's way to tell us we are ready for the next step. Momma's start leaving the babes more and more at this age. I start introducing food for the pups at 4 weeks. I do not use can. What I do is to take the dry food they will be eating and add water to that. Once the dry has absorbed the water I take a fork and mash it more. As the pups grow older and develop teeth I keep the softening of the food to a minimal. By six week old they should be converted right to dry food. |
