You are welcome! I would feed this food to your puppy until she is 12 months old, then switch her an adult formulated dog food. Given at your puppy is 24 days old (just over three weeks of age), she will not be old enough to be weaned until she is at least four to five weeks of age. I can give you a way to wean her onto solid food. To help her wean and to get used to dry food, I would soak a high quality puppy formulated dry food in warm water until soft. Then mix that with puppy formula such as KMR to make a mush the consistency of oatmeal. Over the next two weeks, gradually increase the amount of dry puppy food and decrease the amount of water and KMR you use until she is eating the dry puppy food only.
