We start our weaning phase at about 4 weeks or so, depending on how good the momma is able to sustain feeding.  Between weeks 4 and 5, puppies will be fed puppy kibble and a little less of momma each day until the end of week 5.  After week 5, it is only puppy kibble until it is time to go to their new homes.  The puppy kibble that we like to use is Hills Science Diet puppy food.  You as the new owner can keep them on this food for several months and then move on to young adult size kibble and then on to adult size.  If you decide to switch to another brand of kibble, it is good to mix and feed for at least a week so the change in food does not upset their stomach.
