JOVIVA CHIHUAHUAS DIET SHEET

8 - 12 WEEKS  =  4 meals a day

	2 meals of Heinz High Protein Cereal with small amount of minced chicken  or beef and mixed with  Biolac formula.
	2 meals of minced chicken/beef/lamb/turkey with  grated raw vegetables or pasta or rice

12 WEEKS to 6 MTHS  = 3 meals a day  

	1 meal of Heinz High Protein Cereal mixed with  small amount of minced meat mixed with Biolac  Formula IF your puppy decides he does not want  cereal earlier do not worry substitute a good quality premium dry food
	2 meals of finely chopped beef/chicken/lamb/turkey with grated raw vegetables or pasta or rice

 

	1 meat meal with vegetables/pasta/rice
	1 meal of premium quality dry food  PLUS one bone a day

Raw is always best - including all meat and vegetables as cooking destroys its nutritional value

Fresh bowl of water available at all times

BONES - NEVER EVER COOKED BONES OF ANY SORT - when cooked they are brittle they  could rupture the stomach and they break tiny teeth and KILL your dog

Give your puppy a raw bone every day e.g., chicken wing, chicken carcus or brisket  bone

3 drops of Pentavite vitamin syrup a day until adult

Two meals a week add an egg yolk to a mince meal

Once a week add a teaspoon of acidophilus yogurt to a mince meal NB yoghurt is  excellent for an upset tummy (a teaspoon every two hours, if not well after 6 hours a  visit to your vet is vital)

Cottage cheese added to a meal is an excellent protein and easily digestible

Tasty or Parmesan cheese added to a meal will encourage a finicky eater and is excellent protein

	Pal Professional for Puppies
	Eukanuba Puppy
	Pro Plan Puppy
