Food

When the puppy comes, please make sure you have food ready for them. Try to
steer away from processed dog foods & keep them on a rich micronutrient diet.
This will positively affect the growth and colour of your pup’s coat condition &
ensure for a happy healthy puppy. Puppies must be fed 3 times a day.

What we have fed them & some options
- Cooked Chicken legs and wings with a little bit of rice & grated carrot. Place in a
pot with a little bit of water slow cook for about 20min wait for it to slightly cool
down take the meat off the bone for them. Try to not get them used to hand
feeding.
- Chicken feet is also a good alternative, usually found in your nearest butcher.
- Raw mince, beef, lamb or chicken (no pork)
- Any beef or lamb on the bone is also a good source of food as your dog can chew
on the meat and bone! You can ask your butcher for the bone off cuts. This is a
great way tostrengthen their teeth.
- Chicken or lamb heart slightly cooked is also a hit. You can usually find this at
your closest supermarket
- Dry food should be constantly available. Blackhawk lamb and rice in 20kg bag is
a good option. Royal canine is also a good brand for dry food. Alternating with
different brands which are high in nutrition to see which dry biscuit your dog
prefers is also recommended.
- Also make sure the puppy has puppy milk alongside their water up until they are 6
months old.

Please take note – never feed your Poodle processed with artificial colourings and
preservatives!
Even if it claims to improve the colour of their hair! This is highly dangerous and can
cause severe allergic reactions.
