| first few days with marley I just got marley a week ago. he's 9 weeks old he's so adorable. right now i have him on rice and boiled chicken recommended by the vet because he had diarreah. Now Marleys stool is great, no diarreah anymore, however should i still keep him on the same diet and slowly transition him to his dog food, or should I just give him only his dog food |

| Always slowly transition anytime you change food...

| He won't get all the nutrients he needs from chicken and rice alone, so definitely start mixing in good quality puppy food. If you use kibble, you might need to moisten it with water, or some chicken broth because he is so young. In the future you might try giving him cooked/canned pumpkin (w/no spices added), for diarrhea and also for constipation and other digestive problems. Good luck with Marley, and Welcome to Yorkie Talk.
