Hello and thank you for reaching out to Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. A one month old puppy should be able to eat puppy food, so I would find a dry food that is formulated for puppies/growth. Follow the feeding instructions on the bag. If you are unable to purchase dog food today, you may feed him boiled chicken and rice in a ratio of two parts rice to one part meat. I hope this is helpful!
