As soon as my pups are walking I introduce them to finely ground up dry puppy food. I put the dry puppy food in a blender and grind it until it is fine like corn meal. I sift it through a colander to make sure there are no large chunks. I put the dry mixture in a small double sided bowl like what they sell at Wal-mart in the pet department. I put the dry mixture in both sides of the bowl. The little pups will come over and start licking it. I also put down a double sided bowl with water in it. This method always works great for me. Of course mom will continue to let them nurse but as the puppies eat more dry food and less milk, the mom will slowly dry up. |
I used to use the mushy water soaked food until I tried this method..there is so much less wasted food and it works like a charm
