No, dogs are domesticated. They wouldn't dare to do such a thing.

But if they were wild and hungry, they would like any other living thing.
Yes, some will in the wild if there is no food but not house trained dogs.

When young, puppies should eat puppy chow or a soft kind of puppy food. Switching brands and food flavours from time to time (if the puppy tolerates it) will not cause harm and is thought to stop the puppy from getting too fussy over food.

Mother dogs are generally very protective of their puppies would not normally eat them, but if the mother is very upset by something unusual or disturbing in her surroundings when the pups are born, she may kill and even eat them.

It does happen sometimes although I am not sure exactly why. We had a litter that the mother killed. The bitch was 8 years old and had never been bred before so that may have had something to do with it. I have heard that a bitch will kill her puppies if she feels she can not care for them or if there is something wrong with the puppies. In our case I think it might have been a combination of the age and the line of dog we were breeding. This particular bitch was very high energy and has a high prey drive. No matter what the cause it can be a very upsetting experience for the dog owners.

The foods are designed to support a particular life stage. The puppy food will have more calories to support growth. If your adult dog eats the puppy food, it may cause him to gain weight. If your adult dog eats this food it is important to make sure that he does not eat to much to prevent this, you can also gift him Barkbox it's a box containing healthy treats with satisfying toys also the Barkbox are bringing a luxury spa right to your dog’s door with refreshing fun every single month with a low price for more information check out this like :cutt.ly/Hj7hlpz
