Puppy milk/Water
Hi, I have an eight week old pup we picked up last week, we initially just gave him puppy milk which he seems to absolutely love but will not touch plain/fresh water, The only way we can get drink water is to soak some dry puppy food in his bowl with water for a few minutes the give it to him, He is very playfull and happy not panting or seeming thirsty, Should I continue with the dry food in the bowl with water and gradually start reducing the dry food until he's drinking plain water? My concern is that puppy milk will not properly hydrate him, We have him booked in for vaccinations on wednesday and will ask the vet for advice on the matter, But any advice would be appreciated. Thanks James

Re: Puppy milk/Water
just get the water into your pup anyway you can as long as he getting hydrated he will be fine.
ps puppy milk is only really for pups that there mums cant feed ie litter to large once the pups are fully weaned there no real benefit from puppy milk apart from putting to much weight on
