A two-week-old puppy is very little still and may still need formula if not nursing from his or her mother. Check with your vet to see what the best approach to feeding the puppy is. Puppies are normally weaned from their mothers around 6-8 weeks, and after then any high-quality puppy chow is fine--follow the feeding guidelines on the packaging for quantity.

It is unclear from this question what the puppy is currently eating. A eight week old puppy should be able to eat dry food. Any change in the diet should be made gradually.

If you are weening the puppy from milk you should start with dry food soaked in water or milk and gradually reduce the liquid.
