    Best food for a 9 week old Chi/Weenie puppy
    I have a 9 week old chi/weenie puppy. What is the best food for her? Dry or wet
    (canned)? She eats the canned but does not like the dry. She doesn't even like the chewy treats I but her!

    I had the same problem with my minpin puppy. You should give her a food that says puppy AND small breed or toy breed if she's considered one. I use science diet. The kibble is tiny enough for her. She started on canned mixed with some kibble, then eventually kibble only. It took her a few days to realize the kibble is all she had, so if she didn't want to starve, she needed to eat it lol. My vet recommended including canned food in her diet until she was around 4 months old because as babies, they need those extra calories. Check with your vet about it, they can give you better and breed specific insight.
