a pup can not "eat" dry food at 3 weeks, but will start to try to. A much is 
usually offered about this time...a wet mushy mixture of food, but by the time 
they are 8 weeks old they should be eating dry food....but some softer should 
still be available to supplement. The dry is best and is good for teeth, but of 
course they gotta get enough food, so a softer supplement should be available 
at this time.

Also, I know this wasn't directed to me, lol, but I free feed myself......

  They were able to chew it?  When I got Maxx at 5 months, the breeder 
recommended wet food.  Probably to ease in his adjustment to me and not go 
hungry.  After a few weeks, he went dry then had to go back to wetfood again 
when he lost his baby teeth and couldn't chew it!  He's back to completely dry 
now and absolutely prefers it to wet, he's almost 10 months.


  He did prefer the wet when he needed it.  I guess he really had a hard time 
chewing it.  


  How much do you feed?
