Puppy not feeding

Hello, I am new to this group and just brought my 8 week old rottie home. The breeder had our puppy on Pedigree wet, I am trying to introduce kibble into his diet and he will not eat. He doesn't eat much ( about 1/2 a can a day)
I am really concerned, any suggestions

Re: Puppy not feeding

Try soaking it first and then adding just a bit at a time to the food he has been on. As he starts to eat it, gradually add more and more kibble. It may take time so don't be in a hurry.

Welcome to the forums.

Yes...try soaking some good quality kibble and slowly mix in with the Pedigree. Take a look at the Nutrition & Grooming forum, for some good quality choices for dogfoods. Please try to get away from Pedigree or anything sold in grocery stores. If you have a Global Pet Food store or a Ryan's near you, you can get all of the good quality dogfoods we discuss here. Also most Pet Value's have a holistic line now of foods.
