Hi All,

Its been a long time since ive owned a Staffy.

I am looking for some puppy advice. Today ive picked up a 13 week old bitch. Shes been quite badly treated from birth in the fact that the mother has not been around and shes been starved a bit. Someone rescued her and her brothers and sisters and fed them up a bit so I am looking probably more for nutrition advice given the fact shes not been looked after at the start.

Any advice will be greatly received.

Kind regards.

What plans have you in place? What are you planning on feeding her? Raw/dry? Have you had her checked at the vets? When you say someone rescued her was this a credited rescue or someone you no?

At 13 weeks it is all up to you to provide etc. I take it you have owned dogs before, if so puppy hood is fun and tough x

Poor love, sounds like she's had a rough start. I would definitely take her to the vets for a check up if you haven't already

Maybe best to take her to local vets or at least phone them and get some advice.
