I'd be afraid of the fat and salt in cheese and the salt in ham.
Same with liverwurst, I used it as a last resort for my poodle a few times, but it's really not good for dogs (fat, salt, spices) and would be horrible for a tiny puppy.
Pill pockets are great (I've never used them but a lot of people like them), but I think they'd be too big for a tiny puppy. I think petsmart and petco sell them.
Good luck |
Liverwurst I use in a pinch because of the salt and spices, I really don't like to recommend it, but as stated in a pinch if I run out of pill pockets, which I usually don't as I buy 3 large bags at a time. I forgot this was a wee puppy, and yes, I think for a puppy it would upset their lil stomachs.
