| pellets? hey everyone! i have a doubt. Lily is 1 month old now, still with her mum at the breeder's place. my question is: at what age will she start eating pellet/dry food and give up breastfeeding? i prefer to ask u guys about my doubts before actually talking to the breeder so that I feel more educated. |

| Possibly one of the breeders here will come along and answer your question better than I. As I understand it puppys start on a mixture of kibble/pellets and liquid at about 6 or 7 weeks and are still nursing too. Then over the next few day/weeks they progress to less nursing and more kibble/pellets,bringing them to about 10 or 11 weeks and being totally on dry food. The puppy should still not leave their mommie until 12 weeks so that she can complete her job of raising her baby socially before the puppy moves to a new home to be trained by you. Again I hope that someone will be able to give you a more exact answer. |
