What can i give my puppy to eat when she barely has teeth?

her teeth are barely growing, is there anything (that is not milk replacer) that i can give her to eat.

What can i give my puppy to eat when she barely has teeth?
heat water about a cup water for a cup food i just use the measuring cup to heat the water in (just nuke it in the microwave til boiling-ish) pour with dogfood in bowl (smells kinda gross) let cool and serve, it makes it mushy so she shouldn't have any problem eating it.
Reply:If your puppy barely has any teeth, then he's probably not suppose to be away from momma dog yet.





Try feeding puppy chow soaked in lukewarm water.
Reply:talk to your vet to b sure but there is prob some kind of soft food she can mush around or maybe you could mix water with dry food.
Reply:If you feed her dry dog food, soak it in milk or water to soften it. Canned dog food can cause a dog to have the "poops".
Reply:small food soaked in warm water or milk. I even gave beef %26amp;chicken baby food to a pup for a while till it could eat better.
Reply:prabably if not to young give her from a pet stroe puppy food kibble and smash it up
Reply:how old is she?


wetting down a quality food is probably your best bet. sounds like shes a little breed - chihuahua or yorkie maybe? these are the most common breeds to have the initial hard dog food problem...


try using science diet small bites with a little warm water.


starting her on canned food now can be a slippery slope. they get used to it and then it can be hard to switch back onto dry! (and canned is more fattening, and doesnt benefit the teeth like dry does)
Reply:soft puppy food.
Reply:You should start to give her canned food that does not come in chunks.It will work perfectly fine.My eight dogs started out that way.
Reply:If she is 5 weeks old or older you can give can food or you can try wetting dry food with warm water to make it softer.
Reply:Something like Cheerios as it is a little crunchy to help with teething. But it is also softened somewhat by the milk. This is also nourishing. Baby food meat would be good too. As the puppy grows you can switch up to junior (chunky) varieties.
Reply:wet food, can or pouch foods, or some foods will soften up if mixed with a small amount of warm water.
Reply:Seriously, if she has no teeth, she should not be removed from her mother. A puppy should not leave their breeder until at least 8 weeks of age. Even longer for toy breeds.





If she is older than 8 weeks old, does she have some strange illness that made her lose her teeth??
Reply:How old is your puppy? If she barely has teeth as you stated She is not old enough to be away from her mom. Take her back where she belongs or take her to the vet for proper care.
Reply:My dog is 11 yrs. old and he barely has any teeth and he can eat a dog biscuit, it just takes him a little longer then it use to. Canned puppy food works.
