1, Schnauzer puppies develop rapidly, and they need to be fed more than adult dogs several times a day. If the bitch has enough milk and good breastfeeding conditions, don't hurry to wean, but if it is 5 weeks old, it should be weaned according to the above steps. A 6-week-old schnauzer puppy does not need a bitch to breastfeed.
2. Weaning the bitch: When Schnauzer puppies are almost three weeks old, they can start feeding professional puppy dog food, such as Li Duo dog food, and use it according to the instructions. You can also prepare it yourself. The method is to mix milk with baby cereal and put it on a plate. The schnauzer puppies are brought to a plate, and some of them are put in the mouth of the schnauzer puppies twice a day, after which the schnauzer puppies will feed themselves.
3. When feeding dog food, in some cases, the bitch must be taken away to avoid the bitch interfering with the feeding of Schnauzer puppies. When schnauzer puppies are used to eating from the plate, the feeding amount can be gradually increased to three or four times a day. It is recommended to stick to professional dog food.
4. When Schnauzer puppies grow to 12 weeks, feed them three times a day until they are 6 months old, and then feed them twice a day until they are 9 months old. After that, you can feed one or two meals a day according to the individual or the environment.
5. When feeding Schnauzer puppies, put the food in, take the dog to the food place, keep quiet and let the dog eat. After 20-30 minutes, take away the food plate and leftover food. Leftover food can be stored in the refrigerator and fed (heated) at the next meal.
6. Correct eating habits: Don't let your dog become picky eaters. It is wise to insist on feeding Schnauzer's professional dog food.
