My puppy only wants to eat dry puppy food. Is it OK to feed her on only dry food at 9 weeks old?

It is fine, as long as it is a good high quality kibble that meets her nutritional needs.
What are you feeding?

Many thanks for your speedy response. I feed her Royal Canin mini puppy food.

Royal Canin is a good food to feed. Just be sure to follow the feeding requirements for your puppy.

I hope it's fine... my dog has been eating it almost since he was born, 8 years ago... and he's a hefty little sucker!

If puppy can handle the dry kibble, then that's great.

When we got our pup we had to wet down his food for a few weeks. He was 8 weeks when we got him.

Dry food is best, and it sounds like you've picked a great brand (I'm not that versed on dog food brands).

We'd love pictures of your fur baby. :)

Dry food is better as it helps to keep teeth clean. Also another benefit of using good quality food with little in the way of fillers is smaller piles to clean up.. a big benefit.

Not to mention that you don't have to feed as often, which does help keep costs down, even if the dog food is more expensive initially. :)
