What food is best for my 5-month-old Siberian Husky puppy, milk or Cerelac?

No, this is not good to give Yuki and I would not feed it to him. It's not formulated for dogs and it will not give him the nutrients he requires to grow. He should be fed a puppy formulated food only, such as Royal Canin, Hill's Science diet, PurinaProPlan, or Iams. The only liquid Yuki will need is water.

It is very concerning that a puppy of Jackie's age isn't eating much food. Cerelac is not an appropriate diet for a dog, he needs a puppy formulated food. Puppies need higher amounts of calcium, calories, and protein than adult dogs, and a puppy formulated food will provide that for him. When he's 12 months old, he will need an adult dog food. I do not recommend feeding him anymore celerac, and put him straight onto a puppy food. Brands I recommend include Royal Canin, Hill's Science Diet, Purina ProPlan, and Iams. As for milk, it causes GI upset in dogs, so only give him water. You can add water to his dry dog food or feed him a canned puppy food to get more water into his diet. Finally, I'd have him seen by a vet for a health check. As I said above, it is concerning that he isn't eating much, and a check with the vet is always recommended. Good luck, I hope this helps!

You can start now. Buy a high-quality dry food and mix it in the ratio of 1/4 dry food to 3/4 of the cerelac. Feed three times/day. If the dog is tolerating the mixture after a day or so, increase the dog food to 1/2 the total and decrease the cerelac to 1/2 half the total. Then you can give 3/4 dog food to 1/4 cerelac, and finally switch over to the dog food exclusively. I am concerned that the cerelac may not have been giving the dog the nutrients he needs. It is best to get him onto dog food as soon as possible. Watch for signs of excessive weight gain, as the dog food may cause him to put on more weight than the cerleac has. After a few months you can decrease the frequency to twice/day. I am available for consultation if you have questions or need additional help.

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! I recommend canned puppy food at 5 weeks of age. You can add puppy formula to it to get him used to it for a week. I do not recommend human dairy products. The Cerelac has a lot of moisture and that is probably why he isn't drinking much. As long as he is eating, urinating and pooping he should be fine. Good luck!

Celeriac is not appropriate for a 24 day old puppy. She will not be fully weaned from her mother at this age, and should still be nursing until she is at least six to eight weeks of age. After that, she will need a puppy formulated food only.

Yes the fur will grow back but it will take time. Czer needs a puppy milk replacer instead of the cerelac. I recommend KMR. You can start weaning him onto a dry puppy food as well. To help him wean and to get used to dry food, I would soak a high quality puppy formulated dry food in warm water until soft. Then mix that with puppy formula such as KMR to make a mush the consistency of oatmeal. Over the next two weeks, gradually increase the amount of dry puppy food and decrease the amount of water and KMR you use until he is eating the dry puppy food only. Best of luck!

Hello. Better than the Cerelac, you want to use a syringable product like Hill's a/d or Purina Critical Care. If your vet does not carry these, then you can purchase pureed meat baby foods as long as there is no onion or garlic. If you cannot get this, then take any canned dog or puppy food & puree it at home in a blender adding just enough water that you can push the food through a syringe without the food blocking things up. Until your puppy can eat on its own, you can give 1 cc (ml ) every hour. This is just a tiny amount of food that hopefully Goofy will not throw up. You should also syringe a couple of ccs (mls) of water every hour, too. If any of these small amounts still cause the puppy to vomit, he will probably need to be hospitalized for intravenous fluids & continuing medications to control the nausea & vomiting. But if he will hold down these tiny amounts for most of the day, you may be able to nurse him through this. Good luck & thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
