Every breeder weans different and as different times, I start supplementing the babies at 4 weeks, but mama still takes care of the night feeding, my bitch does not comes back to sleep in her crate in my bedroom until the puppies are 6 weeks old, then about that time she has also stoped cleaning the puppies and the area,by 8 weeks my pups are in the mush to solid food transition, which last until 10 weeks, by the time they are 12 weeks they are eating kibble mixed with raw medallions or canned food. Poor Bella probably did not had all her teeth when the Breeder sold her, this baby should be in a mush of soft food and goats milk, every 2 to 3 hours.
she had diarreah, so I did not get concerned with her pooping she is pooping.
Coccidia is very hard on a puppy, so she must be feed forced fed if necessary, at this point I would add a liver broth and pate into her feeding too, I would make a mush of liver pate, liver broth,and goats milk and use it in a few of her feedings, to make sure she is getting the most of each feeding.
Chaunda knows she can call me anytime she has a question , and I agree, I would take Bella to another Vet at the first chance if possible..
hugs,
