In my opinion Farmina N&D (Puppy medium) is the best. It's a little costlier than Rc but it has more protein content. I tried Rc , Dibaaq and Origen also but i found that N& D is better. Give food which has high protein content and low or no fillers atleat upto 6 months and then you can mix high protein food with low ones like pedigree or drools. Also don't forget to give multivitamins, calcium , iron and fish oil syrups daily.

Hii, RC and N and D are really good dog food brands. I would suggest you to buy 1kg of Royal Canin and N and D, to see which food suits her digestibility and which is more appealing to her in terms of taste . I , personally feed my Zara RC , her coat is shiny ,digestion is really good and overall health is perfect as RC suits her in every way. I have heard that N and D is also very good , but I have never fed her that , because RC is good for her and didnt want to change her food again and again as it may causr prob.Both RC and N and D are very costly in comparison to Pedigree. If you are willing to spend, then you can definitely go with any 1 of these brands. At the same time , it's not that if you don't feed your dog foods of these brands she won't be healthy or like that, it's just that these are better options in comparison to pedigree and all.๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป

H!! Amitava, It's me Dylan again ๐Ÿ˜œ I thinking you must have had enough of suggestions on packaged food. Since your asking about home made food. Here I have few suggestion on it. All that you hear from an pet parent first would be curd ๐Ÿš rice, ๐Ÿ˜‚ as you know curd has calcium / protein / ( Probiotics - not really thought). Rice has only carb's which is not much needed. We need to focus on the protein part for its visible growth. If ๐Ÿถ Liza is done with the vaccination and deworming you can give her ๐Ÿ‘‰egg white. ๐Ÿ‘‰Fish๐Ÿ boiled with Little turmeric alone.โš ๏ธ To be fed de-boned. I suggestโœ…fish because the fiber texture would be 0% as compared to๐Ÿšซchicken or๐Ÿšซmeat being boiled. ๐Ÿ‘‰An baby spoon of soft peanut butter. ๐Ÿ‘‰Little of fresh cheese ๐Ÿง€ check if she likes it โš ๏ธ About all : Anything served new to Liza needs to be little by portion. Eventhough if it's home made food . The packaged food needs to be interested little by little to ๐Ÿถ Liza'z previous food brand. +Increase new one - Reduce the old food brand Old 90%+New10% Old 80%+New20% eventually you will shit to the new brand of food. This will help Liza not have indigestion problem. ๐Ÿšซ Never in life ( Onion / Garlic / Sugar / Chocolate / Even Milk / Raisins / Grapes / Orange ) I hope this might give you an start up idea of Liza'z home made food diet. ๐Ÿ‘‹ Bye for now ๐Ÿ˜‡

Dylan Hay thanks , Liza got 1st dewarming & 1st 9in1 vaccine.......I m switching from pedigree pro to RC medium puppy...as all suggesting ..what ur suggestion. I m giving my Liza IMunecare & BOOSTWIN, how long I have to continue the same. Also it is noticed that her rib cage is visible while she walks & looking some how thin is it normal or do we increase food. Some smell is also coming how to overcome it , as doctor told not to bath during this rainy day only wipe with wipe tissue alternate day & occasionally spray rose water

๐Ÿ˜ƒ๐Ÿ‘ That's a good choice. You can continue this for few months. You can Focus more on the protein. As you know Most pet food contain chicken as protein Which falls under poor or low protein type Rich protein types that contains red meat, turkey,duck and so on which are far expensive compared to the normal packed dry food. You could slowly shift to those later when Liza grow up. That would be my tip for your next purchase. I was queries about the IMMUNECARE & BOOSTWIN is because I have heard both good result and no result too ๐Ÿ˜†... I believe your ๐Ÿ‘จโ€โš•๏ธ doc. must have said about it still that's no way an harm since there is no symptoms of illness. Thin look is quiet normal. Some grown thin by birth with no milk from its mom for some reason. You could give milk suppliments of the same RC brand to add on a little nutrition. Food can be increased very gradually like +1 teaspoon extra food form usual amount. Too much of food can make puke ๐Ÿคฎ out ๐Ÿคช too.. Smell issue is absolutely normal every pet owner will face this. Puppys do sweat too so obviously they smell odd. They sweat through the feet so keep her feet clean. Try to avoid her being in the Sunโ˜€๏ธ Try to brush her teeth with your finger or some soft brush. Liza might even be walking on her Pee ๐Ÿ’ฆ or sitting on it too by accident or feeling that the place is chill. So it's good if she she don't step in it. Feet body tail getting in contact with pee ๐Ÿ’ฆ may even give that odd stink. So you can wipe her with some wet wipes.

If she is not given bath so far it's obvious. I would suggest you give her a quick bath in slightly worm water. Not hot water if you can keep water in the Sun light bather her after the 2"oโฐ clock sun which scorches the water. Bath her very quick (only for the body not on her head.) Wipe her up quick if possible blowdry her hair. ๐Ÿ‘จโ€โš•๏ธDoc won't know untill u say it haha..๐Ÿ˜œ I know it's scary. She is are little infant. But still it's not good to be without bath as well ๐Ÿ˜œ Wipes & a Wet towel makes no difference @ least try it that way. I @ times don't listen to my ๐Ÿ‘จโ€โš•๏ธvet.๐Ÿ˜‚ I go with my inner instinct even after paying the fee ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ When I know I have money and i can face if anything goes wrong I will do what I think. When I don't have conference that I can't handle if this goes wrong I will stick to the docs words. I feel there is no risk. @ least soak the towel in water & run her body if u want. I know how hard it is to play with our pet when they stink. We can't even ignore them or make to them understand that they stink bad.๐Ÿคช Spraying Rose water is an good idea as it smell. The word water is still in it ๐Ÿ˜‚ so wipe her with wet towel spray the rose ๐ŸŒน water & wipe off with dry towel ๐Ÿ˜œ Keep an drop of rose water on her skill top so she can't lick it. Every time she comes close she will smell like rose bud ๐Ÿ˜œ๐Ÿคฃ. Your Doing Good, Application the care taken on Liza ๐Ÿคฉ๐Ÿ‘ Apologies for being late, It's my work hr's ๐Ÿ˜… & Your sleep hours ๐Ÿ˜ด Middle of work hrs๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿคช Anyway, ๐Ÿ‘‹Bye for Now๐Ÿ˜‡

That's Absolutely Normal ๐Ÿ˜Š She's finding her new food tasting different that's why she's slow in eating She must be expected for food as usual but the fact is its different from now on. It will take few days for her to get adopted to it. Make sure she eats. I'm not sure if your following this trick let me tell you. Immediate chance in food is like shifting from first gears to the fifth gear straight riding an hill with a car. Like the break system conks๐Ÿ’ฅ Her guts will also struggling at a sudden with a shift in food. That surly will lead make Liza poop ๐Ÿ’ฉ either too bad or too loose. I would suggest to shift from OLD Pedigree Pro mom & pup which Liza ate to RC little by little Though quantity are same it's not ok to introduce new food at once they will find it funny testing from usual. Day 1 Pedigree Pro mother & pup 90% with 10% RC Day 2 Pedigree Pro mother & pup 80% with 20% RC Day 3 Pedigree Pro mother & pup 70% with 30% RC When you reach the 9th day you will notice that Liza is switched to RC pup food completely๐Ÿ˜Š She will get customised to the new food little by little she won't know the difference. If you find it hard by % count then give her RC one meal and the old Pedigree Pro stuff the rest of its cycle then switch 2 meal RC. Then keep switching the portion of food for the day to RC This trick can be applied at any age in dogs and for any food interfaced. To see less negative reaction and make then switch to it by not letting them know they have it ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚
