1. It is best for newborn Huskies to be breastfed. If artificially fed, goat milk powder specifically for puppies should be chosen.
2. Puppies begin to open their eyes around half a month old and have hearing and other senses. At this time, sudden, strong, and huge sound and light stimulation and other harmful stimulation should be avoided. After opening their eyes, they should do more outdoor activities in the mild climate season. The puppies can be allowed to go outdoors with the mother dog to see the sunshine. After 20 days, the puppies can be allowed to play outdoors with the mother dog. Puppies are fragile and cannot walk far away. They can first move around in suitable venues and lawns nearby to enjoy the light. For puppies born in winter in cold areas, it is best to choose a sunny day without wind or snow, and take the puppies outdoors at noon.
3. From the 4th week onwards, owners of Husky puppies should give them some complete nutritional puppy milk powder. Some dog owners are worried about insufficient nutrition and plan to feed more vitamins and minerals. In fact, there is no need. Because if it is good quality milk powder, it will contain all the ingredients. Feeding your puppy too many nutrients will only be harmful.
4. The weight of newborn Husky puppies is about 450-550 grams. In the first 4 weeks, they gain an average of 50 grams per day, and at 4-8 weeks, they gain almost 100 grams per day. Owners should pay attention to the weight changes of puppies. If they grow too fast, they should control their diet slightly. If they are too thin, they should supplement their nutrition appropriately.
5. Puppies are weaned around 6 weeks old. From weaning to about 3 months old, the feeding times should be 7 a.m., 12 noon, 5 p.m. and 10 p.m., 4 times a day. From the 5th to 8th month of life, puppies can be fed three times in the morning, noon, and evening. The amount of food given to puppies during this period is approximately one-third to half of that of adult dogs.
6. Husky puppies should be fed puppy dog food within 3 months. If you want to reduce feed costs without affecting the nutrition of puppies, you can cook and chop organs such as pig and cow lungs, mix them with vegetables, cornmeal and other cooked foods, and then feed them to puppies. This is economical and practical, but it is harmful to puppies. The growth and development of dogs is not as good as eating dog food.
