It sounds like you are not familiar with taking care of a puppy. It would be a good idea to do some research on the care and training of a puppy. This will make a better pet for you. Like babies, puppies have to be taught.

If a puppy is not properly trained they can become a problem as they become older. A majority of dogs are given up for adoption because of improper training as puppies.

When you take him to the vet for his check-up and inoculations, ask them for suggestions on where to get information. If you have access to a public library, most likely you will be able to find info there.

Chicken byproduct means feet, beaks, all sorts of guts and parts, not any muscle. So that's why byproducts are ridiculous for animal feed. Feathers are kept out for feather meal, another type product.

Puppy Chow or another good brand of wet or dry food made specifically for puppies. Follow the directions on the package.

IF your puppy is weaned from its mother already, then I would buy some good quality puppy food at a pet store. My cocker spaniels are eating INNOVA brand and have been since I got them both as puppies. There's also EVO brand which my daughter has her chihuahua on from the time she was weaned. You can buy either brand at a pet store.

There is no meat by products and it's safe enough for human consumption. Your puppy will have a healthy heads up on starting with top quality dog food and sticking with it even if it's a bit pricey; it's going to save you a lot of vet bills later down the road by keeping your pet healthy with the type of food intake you provide.

You can also do a google search for the right kinds of people food a puppy can eat. There are several foods listed that your pet should never eat in the human food chain.

I have a record file on important things like this to refer from time to time, so if I can't recall, the list refreshens my memory. Here's wishing your puppy the very best of good health.
