When they have a mouthful of razor sharp teeth! Start them off with something soft...even wet after they are weened. Mix in some dry food after a few days and see how it handles it. If the puppy has no trouble with the dry food then, it shouldn't be a problem feeding them completely dry food. Unless of course the pup gets spoiled with the much tastier, softer food. 8 or 9 weeks is the norm for dry food.

How long do staffy puppys feed from mum?
In the wild, weaning begins naturally as soon as the puppies start to develop their teeth at three to four weeks of age. Suckling then irritates or hurts the mother who will move away and leave her puppies for longer and longer periods. Natural weaning involves the female dog vomiting her food and the puppies consuming the vomitus. Many pets will also do this and cause concern to owners. It is usually a natural maternal function and nothing to be worried about. Once the puppies' eyes are open, the sooner the puppies are weaned, the less the strain on the mother and the sooner she will return to normal condition. If the puppies have been hand raised for any reason, the sooner they are weaned and eating solid food on their own, the better. It is worthwhile to begin offering soft foods as soon as their eyes are open.

How do you take care of a two week old dog without its mother?
You would have to bottle feed the puppy until it is old enough to wean and get on solid food. If it is two weeks old and healthy that could happen fairly soon. There are puppy milk formulas available that you can feed or you can make your own. There are several recipes on line if you search "bottle feeding puppies". Bottle feeding infant puppies can be very difficult but if a puppy is already two weeks old it should be easier.
