Puppies are the same as kittens. They need to eat lots. I think they need to eat a tiny bit more than dogs because puppies need to grow. No, that doesn't mean starve your puppy if you want it to stay a puppy, it needs to eat and whether it eats or not, it will grow. Its just puppies need to grow. Just leave a bowl of puppy food out and put the puppy in front of it until it learns that the spot is where the food bowl is. Dogs, they eat when they want. They shouldn't eat as much as puppies though cause then they could end up getting fat. =3 Woof

How do dogs feed their puppies?

For the first few weeks, puppies are nursed on milk produced by the mother dog. As the pups develop they need to start transitioning to solid food. If assistance from the breeder is not available to produce gruel for the puppies to eat, the mother dog will eat and partially digest food which she then vomits for the puppies to eat. This sustains the puppies while they practice eating solid food until they are able to digest it themselves.

Will it benefit your 3 year old chihuahua to eat Purina CV with puppy chow mixed in for her ONLY diet and to start the puppies on the same thing when they go to solid food?

I think that puppy food wont benefit her because it is aimed at puppies. The nutrients will benefit puppies. You should give your puppies the puppy food and the dog the adult dog food. However, with most whole kibble dog foods, you dont need to give them extra tinned dog food
