I have a puppy that will be 6 weeks old on March 2nd. The mother started weening her at 4 weeks. The person I got her from said she has been eating puppy food and drinking, but I haven't been able to get her to drink any water or eat very much. What should I do?

The puppy is so young to leave its mother! She also may have been ill when you received her. Please take her to your vet immediately as she needs food and water now, and most probably medication.
I assure you the person is not telling you the whole truth.
Puppies are not yet ready to leave the mom at six weeks. They should be with the mom and siblings for eight weeks.
Purchase some puppy replacement formula or goat milk. Give this to the puppy until it's eating again. Then you'll need to feed it high quality wet kibble, not cheap stuff like Purina.
