Sometimes when you take a puppy away from it's mother so soon, it takes a while for it to get used to it's new surroundings. Give it some time to adapt to it's new home. Find a high-quality and nutritious puppy food, and stick to that. It is also normally more appealing to a puppy if you moisten the food with warm water. good luck with your puppy raising! =]=]
No, all puppies must stay with their mother until they are atleast 9 weeks old. Any younger than this and the puppy might suffer psychological damage, such as Separation Anxiety Disorder when it matures. The puppy must also continue to feed from it's mother at this age.
You can treat puppies with any topical flea treatment like Advantix. The puppies need to be 7 weeks old before you can use this product on the puppy. To treat a puppy younger than 7 weeks for fleas just apply the treatment to the mother and her close contact with the puppies will rid them of fleas.
Bo sooner than 12 weeks.
They shouldn't have dry food until they are at least 6-7 weeks old. If they are younger than that you can find they puppy formula at your local pet store.

Your new dog shouldn't be and younger then eight weeks and shouldn't be any older then a year. It takes about eight weeks for a puppy to fully grow with its mother so t can drink the mothers milk. Your dog shouldn't be any older than a year so you can train it as you want
If a puppy is eating well it can can be taken from its mother at 5 weeks of age.
keep the pups as warm as possible by keeping them in a warm place and providing blankets. as far as i know, you can go to the pet store and see if they sell puppy formula. if they don't than I'm sorry but that's the only way i know how to feed pups that small. you really ought to seek advice from your Vet because you will need to feed a Puppy Formula every two hours during the day and night about 2 ounces every hour. and you will need to be shown how to make the puppy defaecate and urinate after every meal just as the mother would do. To do this you need to have a soft damp cloth and lightly stroke the private parts with it, simulating the mother's tongue. As the get older they feed less often and by 3 weeks can start to have some solid food as well.
Yes, but a dog can be taught at almost any age.
If old enough, you should feed you puppy some form of puppy chow. Dog food that is especially formulated for puppies is important to their developmental health. They need these nutrients to develop correctly. Puppy chow also has more calories than regualr dog food to support your dog's active lifestyle.
You should not buy a 6 weeks old puppy cause the puppy is too young to leave its mother !!! If you want to have less problem at potty train it, then you should buy it at about 11 or more weeks old!But not too old!!! You should not buy a dog more than 20 weeks old ^.^ Because when it's young, like 6 years old, its mom can teach it a few things!!! So I'm about to buy a 16 weeks old puppy, that is the perfect old for a puppy.!!! So please, e patient!!! ^.^ >.<
You need to start off slowly, giving it only very small amounts at a time. Depending on the breed (size) of the puppy, the amount will range from about one to three tablespoons each feeding. The mother is still nursing the pups, so it won't be necessary to feed it more than twice a day. If you are using dry puppy food instead of canned, mix it with a little warm water to soften it, which will make it easier for the puppy to eat. Then, after about 5 - 7 days, you can increase the amount of food by a little bit, and feed it three times a day. That way, by the time the mother has it completely weaned by about six weeks of age, it will already be used to the dog food.
