When should I start weaning my puppies?
Puppies typically begin the weaning process around 3 to 4 weeks of age. This gradual transition continues until they are about 7 to 8 weeks old, by which time they should be fully accustomed to solid food.
How can I ensure the weaning process is stress-free for the puppies?
Maintain a clean and comfortable feeding environment. Be patient and allow the puppies to explore the new food at their own pace. Gradually reducing the mother’s presence during feeding times can also encourage independence.
What are common challenges during weaning, and how can I address them?
Challenges may include puppies being picky eaters or experiencing mild digestive upsets. Offering a variety of high-quality, easily digestible foods and maintaining consistency in feeding times can help overcome these issues.
When is the weaning process complete?
Weaning is typically complete by 7 to 8 weeks of age when puppies are fully transitioned to solid food and no longer rely on their mother’s milk.
