Puppy Feeding 2Young Westie pups, will at first eat as if there is no tomorrow, do not be tempted to re-fill the bowl when young eat-a-lot has swallowed the lot in 2-3 gulps. Westie pups can be fed with scrambled egg, Porridge and other light foods, rice mixed with the meat is ideal. Change over to junior then adult foods at the correct age, and slowly introduce the new food over a weeks period. Puppies have a special feeding requirements, they need a larger amount of food to the body weight, but they're stomachs are too small to take in large quantities of food. It is for this reason the food given should be concentrated, this becomes difficult if you are feeding home made meals. Exactly how much food to give is difficult to say, an individual puppy's needs may vary. Allowing your puppy to cram food to put on weight could lead to bone disorders. If you are not sure, talk to your local vet. |
