Trouble with a puppy’s tooth can be caused by his nutrition. There are some complications that can arise when feeding a puppy home made foods such as gaining weight and it’s important to check the puppy every so often to ensure he is at his correct weight. The best way to check the puppy’s weight is by feeling his sides; if you can feel his ribs too much, the puppy is underweight, if you can’t feel his ribs at all, the puppy is too fat. And never give your puppy very cold water or artificial drinks. Never feed your puppy leftovers, especially in the summer seasons. Many people do not realize thatfeeding their dogsor puppy’s leftovers can really cause problems.
