The breeder had only fed him once today so that he wouldn't have an upset stomach on the ride home so when I got him I tried to feed him the food that he normally eats (Royal Canin mini puppy) but he ignored it. The breeder did give me a can of beneful wet food (3oz) in case he didn't eat his regular food and he ate a 3rd of that. As soon as he smelled it he gobbled it up and he's drinking water.

Should I give him more nutrical?

So far hes really quiet and just rolls up and lays down next to me.

What behavior should I look out for?

Thanks in advanced for any advice.

You can try mixing Royal Canin Starting Mousse, it's wet food, you can just mix a little bit with dry kibble just to get him to eat a little. I also have a 9 week old and He goes crazy for this mousse, then he starts eating the kibble. It takes a couple of days for them to adjust, give him time and also dont forget Nutri-cal.
