At eight weeks of age, I wouldn't give treats just yet unless you are training Blueberry. I like Beggin Strips. As for food, he should be fed three times a day, once in the morning, afternoon, and evening. Each food has a different daily requirement, so look at the instructions on his bag of food, and divide the daily requirement into three equal portions. Best of luck.
