When I picked Lady up at 7weeks her breeder had her on a moist kibble and puppy canned food mix.She used to soak it in warm water.It was royal canin mini puppy.Iv never heard of a puppy being on milk and sugar..isnt that bad for such a small puppy??

How old are the puppies?

We got DJ when he was 6 weeks old and the breeder was already mixing the milk and sugar in his food

are the 5 week old puppies still nursing? They should still be nursing some and you can make them some soft food by soaking puppy food and water.. They need to stay with their mom and siblings for a while. anyway, you can also get some Nutrical (comes in a tube) and give them a little each day..
