I want to start introducing wet food this weekend and all I have at home are different bags of dry food. Apart from baby food any brands you guys recommend? The a/d is good for puppies with diarrhea but I don't think that its as nutritious and tasty as it could be.
He is really feisty when I try to open his mouth he tries to shut it super tight lol but I'm keeping up with the feedings no matter how messy things get.
BTW is 1 pound 6 ounces a normal weight for his age? He will be ten weeks tomorrow. |
I'm sure others will know, but 1.6 lbs is awfully small for a 10 week old.. Hopefully u can put some weight on him when he's comfortable in his new home.
