RE: Feeding A 3 Week Old Puppy
I would call a local vet for one thing. There are also TONS of websites about how to care for animals.
hopefully the circumstance that you got this dog so early are justifiable.. puppies shouldn't leave their mother's till 8weeks.
anyways, at that age, the mother dog still licks the puppies butt to stimulate the puppy to pee and poop, then she licks it up. (you might be able to copy this by rubbing the puppy dog there >_>) peeing and pooping is most likely to occur after eating and after waking up from naps. if you give her puppy chow, make sure to water it down into mush. also, I hope you are using the appropriate puppy milk, as cow's milk is a big no-no. you might be able to use Goats milk if you can't afford the proper puppy milk, but it still doesn't have all the necessary nutrients. can you take the puppy to the vet for extra information? he can guide you through the process.

at 4weeks you can start her on the mushed puppy chow with the milk supplement. but continue the milk supplement till week 6 if possible.
yes it is normal for the poop to be runny and to come out so fast after feeding. puppy's can not control their bowl movements or "hold it in", so it just comes right out. think about why it's so runny.. she hasn't had any solid food ^^;
at 3 months old they can hold it in for about 3hrs if trained, 5months 5hrs, 7months 7 hrs etc etc. ... View related article.
