iv always used drontol puppy liquid 1ml per kg bodyweight and i find it great stuff can be used from 2wks on never had a problem with it id deff try a different food if there loosing weight pups should be gaining all the time not loosing, i also mix complete puppy milk with food for 2 to 3 weeks after weaning just to give them a boost good luck

Get a good wormer down them and get them on chicken and beef to get some body weight on them ... Pups that young should be piling the weight on ........

Ideally flesh and as much of it as they can eat. Expensive maybe if you have to buy it. But that should have been taken into account the minute you intended to breed/take pups on.

Drontal puppy suspension is what I use for pups good stuff. Get them on beef, chicken etc and they will pile the weight on

Chappie is a much maligned dog food that has proven itself effective for dogs that have digestive problems so I hate to knock it but one suspects a good part of the reason it causes so few digestive problems is that it contains so few animal proteins. Allergies to food are most commonly to beef then other animal proteins with cereal being comparatively rare so most allergies will settle on Chappie. That’s all well and good for sensitive animals but you don’t seem to have a reason to suspect sensitivity in your pups so feeding something with a little more animal protein is perhaps a good idea. You could add in mince etc as already suggested, cooked or raw if its good quality, or you could buy a puppy complete and add in table scraps to enhance variety. Puppies don’t need masses of protein, 17% at a very minimum, but they do need some and a decent complete or adding meat to the diet will ensure they get what they need.

My pups always get raw chicken wings.

Milbemax is a good wormer, its essential to use a good wormer , especially in young pups.

Got pups here did the whole panacure 10 % as recommended on the bitch , after worming her 2 weeks before lining her as well. Wormed pups at 3 weeks yesterday with drontal tablets cut down still got some worms out of pups.

 

You can use drontal/prazivet on pups from 3 weeks get some of that into them sheepish or some miblemax...any of the Johnson's Bob Martin stuff total shite,

 

Weigh the pups and get it into them, read skyward thread on worming it's at the top pinned.

 

Pups on chicken mince , and gain puppy and sapling ..looking good on it
