Congrats on your new baby!! I would definintely wait a week before switching foods so your new baby can settle down a bit. I think I took about a week when switching foods. 75/25, 50/50, 25/75 - 2 days each, then 100% new food. You may have to feed each dog individually until your new baby is on her new food. Otherwise Suzi will be eating the puppy's food, and the puppy will be eating Suzi's food!

I don't know what food you'd like to feed your dogs, but an all life stages kibble may work the best for you to free feed both.

Congrats, and don't forget to post pictures of your new baby when you get her!!!
