Can I Mix Oil With The Dry Food Instead Of Water...
The Food Usually Gets Cold With Water And Puppy Does Not Like That ....

2- My My Puppy 13 Weeks Old , Has Not Had All Her Shot...
Can I Give Her A Bath ? Or Is It Tooooo Soon ?

I wouldn't mix oil unless you want your pup to get the runs. At 13 weeks, she should be eating the food dry (good for the teeth). Is she extremely small? Maybe she is just bossing you around a little to get you trained right (LOL). You can bathe her, just blow dry her and make sure she is completely dry...NEVER LET HER CATCH A CHILL. Also, watch you don't burn her baby skin with the blow dryer. Don't let ANY water get in her ears. I use a wash cloth on the face. Good luck!

Oh, you don't want that first bath experience to be a bad one...! Already have the water in there. Talk low and assuring the whole entire time even if she is all squiggly and trying to get out. Then drain your water, run your rinse water so as the noise doesn't scare her and rinse, rinse, rinse (using a cup or sprayer). You have to make sure you get it all or your baby will be itchy.

I Guess I'll Have My Mom Help With This One..... Im Such A Sissy...
I Took Her To The Vet For The First Time On Friday, The Vet Gave Her A Shot... Guess What I Ran Outside.... I Mean Out Of The Room And Out The Door..... I Didnt Want To Hear Her Cry.. The Vet Said To Me Ill Be Done Before You Get Out The Door.... 2 Seconds Later, The Vet Came Out After Me And Said All Done........ Im The Whimp No Her.
As A Matter Of Fact, My Mom Came With Me And Stayed In The Room, But She Had Her Head Turned .... Anyway, Thanks For Your Help
