Congratulations on adding the puppies to your family! The main food for the puppies should be an AAFCO certified puppy food. These diets are fortified and so they contain to proper amounts of Calcium, Phosphorus, protein and other essential components for proper growth and development. I recommend to look for well known brands with good reputations like Royal Canin, Iams, Eukanuba, Science Diet, Nutro or Purina. Here is a link about feeding puppies: https://www.petcoach.co/article/feeding-puppies-what-when-how/ If you want to add something extra to the food (but keep in mind this is not needed and can create a dog who is a picky eater), you can add plain white or brown rice, boiled white meat chicken (white meat ONLY), canned organic pumpkin, peas, carrots, green beans, eggs whites or a few tablespoons of canned dog food. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.
