What did your breeder tell you? What was the breeder feeding?
Your baby is 12 weeks old. I would be feeding canned Royal Canin Puppy food, while I am weaning this baby over to RC Puppy kibble, which I may or may not be softening with a little warm water until this baby gets used to crunching down on kibble...RC puppy kibble is softer and flavor enhanced to please a puppy....I leave all my puppies on puppy kibble until they are a year old, then they go to RC adult kibble. I free feed all babies until they are a year old, then they can be advanced to 3 times a day....I always free feed all my dogs....when they get to be a year old, the adult kibble food goes into a large bowl and they eat when ever they want, all day long. They have set times they go outside to poop, and they know to wait until that time....isnt a problem because it is frequent enough during the day that the dogs have no problem holding and waiting until they go outside to use the bathroom. Hoping you have a great book, "Yorkies for Dummies"....you need to read that book cover to cover....and keep it close because you will refer to it for years to come. |
