A puppy already has teeth. But they do chew on things to make their teeth stronger. This is called teething. You can start to feed a puppy dry food whenever you want, just make sure the food is tiny and not to big so they could choke.
If the puppy is 4 weeks old or older soak some dry puppy food in water loosen up with a fork and he/she should eat it and about 2 week all teeth in they should eat the food dry good.
Either puppy wet food or Puppy dry food it doesn't matter but as long as it say puppy food.
Yes! just make sure that it is quality food, and not the cheap supermarket kind. Switch him/her over slowly by adding a little dry food to the canned, then increase the dry food and decrease the canned food over the period of a week until it is all dry food.
If the puppy is only 1 month old you need to soak puppy food in water, get it soft,mash with a fork and let puppy go for it.
They usually eat pet food that is very healthy, but you need to make sure that if you have a puppy you get puppy food not dog food.
Puppies can start on soaked dry puppy food at around 3 weeks of age. Just soak the puppy food in some warm water and let soften to just a mush. Then you can add a little Esbilac, warm water or canned milk (never use cow's milk). diluted one part canned milk to one part water. At around 4 weeks you can soak the puppy food with just warm water and then eventually they can eat the dry puppy food just dry & crunchy. Always use a good name brand dry puppy food, not some cheap store brand.
If the food you eat is dry, then it will dry your mouth up and make you thirsty.
A trip to your Veterinarian complete with a small sample of the puppy's stool. A good check up is necessary at this time.

Only your Vet can tell if your puppy is ill due to other reasons or not.
