Title: got my daughter a puppy... need some help! Post by: josh54 on November 17, 2013, 09:51:27 pm My daughter has been wanting a puppy for a while so we got her a boxer puppy for her early 3rd birthday gift. Picked the pup up last night and didn't even notice til we got back how skinny she was. Was told she was 7 weeks old and eating dry food. I think she is younger. Got her to eat about a 1/4 cup of puppy food last night but only after i wet it to soften it. Wormed her this morning and tried to feed her today but she won't eat anything. Got her to eat about a table spoon of tuna but won't eat anything else. Any suggestions how to get her to eat. Don't know if it's normal but all she does is sleep

She could be a little stressed from the new move and she is a pup , Sh*t , eat , and play is all they do. If she doesnt start eating within a couple days take her to the vet .
