You need to feed them small meals. If they eat too much, they can get sick and even die. You are better off feeding them smaller meals more frequently. You can refer to this article: www.petmd.com/.../the-right-way-to-feed-dog-that-has...

Hopefully you have already taken your new friend to visit the vet and they have started you on a good course to get your puppy back to a healthy stage.

I often read where people recommend giving baby food to puppies (sick or well) but my vet says to never do that as a lot of baby foods are made with onion powder and that is toxic to dogs. I guess you may be able to read every ingredient on the label but I would not recommend taking the chance.

Here is a link that gives a lot of information about caring for your new puppy.
