Question

My Labrador now 44 days old his weight is around 1.5 kg. We bought him when he was 35 days old. We gave him “ nutre-lac puppy cereal” 2 spoon in water with 1 spoon curd 3 time in a day. Now he stop eating food even sometime he can’t balance himself on his legs. He sleeps most of the time. What should I do? I am worried about him.

Simba is underweight for his age and breed. This puppy cereal and curd are not a balanced diet for a puppy, and it will not give him the nutrients he needs to grow properly. In addition, the lack of nutrients will lead him to be weak. He needs to be on a puppy formulated dry food only. Brands I recommend include Royal Canin, Hill's Science Diet, Purina ProPlan, and Iams. Please go out and buy him some puppy food now. I would also take him into a vet right away. I'm quite concerned about his weight, the fact that he won't eat food, and that he's sleeping all the time. He needs veterinary care right away. Best of luck.
