Hi. I'm just reading the thread. If you are placing an order (probably already did) I would go with the Wellness Puppy. I like the chicken forumula. It's a little pricy but it is very good. I also personally, like to boil some fresh chicken breast, brown rice and carrots. I chop it all up just like canned food and I mix some in with the canned. Also, I would pick up Nutrical Puppy. I have a tiny also. We got her at 16 weeks and she was only 1.7 ounces. She's now 5.5 months old and weighs 2.5 ounces. You have take a lot of care with them. Personally the breeder should have never let her go at 9 weeks old, especially since she's so small. And, you need to feed her small meals through out the day. I usually did morning, afternoon and late evening and maybe a small snack before bedtime. I also would give her some Nutrical in the morning and also before she went to bed. As far as the parasites, that too is dangerous in a little one. You're not alone with that. My girl had Giardia when we got her, and she had a slight kennel couph (Breeder said the kennel couph came from the vaccine. She was honest that she still had a risidual couph and she kept her a little longer to be sure she was ok) after the giardia, cleared we then noticed she had little pieces of rice in her poop which turned out to be tape worm. Thankfully, she is fine now. There are many many knowledgeable people here on YT that will help you I'm sure, but if there is anything I can help you with or questions please feel free to PM me. The main thing is with your little one is to keep her sugar levels regular. If she is lethargic, I would give her some Nutrical. Elaine
