A puppy's growth is the most important period in his life. At this time, the formation of bone and muscle mass occurs, the correct structure of all body systems is laid. The baby's needs for vitamins and various minerals are much higher than the needs of an adult dog. Puppy development primarily depends on adequate and timely feeding. In order for him to grow strong and strong, he must be properly fed, taking into account the individual characteristics of the animal.
Instructions
Step 1
When feeding a small puppy, it must be remembered that his metabolic process occurs very quickly, so you need to feed him often, but in small portions.
Step 2
The very first food for a baby is milk and thin cereals. Add honey to each portion of milk, but just a little. A portion for a puppy should be no more than three tablespoons per meal, and should be increased with age.
Step 3
You need to feed your puppy five to six times a day. Do not teach him to eat at night, even if he squeaks heavily. It is necessary to establish a diet and try to feed the baby at the same time. Then his stomach will learn to work at certain hours, and it will be easier for you to train the puppy to the toilet.
Step 4
After 3 months, meat soups, vegetables and fruits should prevail in the diet. It is useful to give raw and boiled meat in small quantities. It must be thoroughly kneaded and given to the puppy no more than one teaspoon per day.
Step 5
Milk feeds can be reduced to twice a day. Train your puppy to oatmeal, brew them with meat broth or milk.
Step 6
The food should be varied. It is very helpful to feed your puppy with fish after removing all bones from it. Never feed it on bird or fish bones. You can not give your baby boiled potatoes, legumes, add spices to food, as all this can lead to indigestion.
Step 7
Add raw eggs to food. No more than two eggs per week should be given. Instead of sweets, indulge your baby with raisins, prunes or dried apricots in small quantities.
Step 8
Put a cup of food for ten to fifteen minutes. It should then be harvested before the next feed. The puppy should always have a separate bowl of clean water.
Step 9
All food and drink cups should be placed on an elevated position depending on the dog's height. The height should be such that the puppy does not choke while eating.
