They should always have food available to nibble on. Never feed your puppy from the table. It only encourages begging.

At three to four weeks, puppies should begin eating some solid food. You can try mixing three parts food with one part water or puppy replacement milk .

So they don't starve.

ANSWER: Because fish won't. Puppy food contains extra nutrients needed for puppies to grow properly. Just as you wouldn't feed an infant human a Big Mac, you should not give a puppy adult dog food. They have special nutritional needs, just like human babies.

Because there are certain types of ingredients in puppy food specially formulized to break down easily while their enzymes and digestive system are still developing, like in humans and babies. Baby formula does not have starch but instead is made of maltose mixtures to allow quicker digestion.

Puppies should get puppy food and a dog that is 1 year old or more should get Junior food, and older dogs (generally 10 years and up) should get a Seniors diet so they don't get too fat, but still get the nutrients.

Because it has all the nutrition they need for a healthy balanced diet, and some foods that humans eat are poisonous to dogs, e.g. .onions, chocolate

Hope this Helps.
