Puppy food and additives

[paulmuzzer2 0]

Hi all,

 

I have a 11 week old puppy, he is a 50/50bull/grey(Dam) x whippet(Sire), this is new to me and i have not owned a dog since i was a child. any help would be fantastic.

 

I am currently feeding him on "pets at home" own brand neutrition chicken dried food, the protien is 28% and he is doing ok on it.

 

I have been told by a few mates that i should be giving him bone meal and codliver & malt drink.

 

1. 
    
   

Could somebody please advise me on what i should be giving him as i would like him to have strong bones/joints and good healthy coat.

Could someone also please let me know how far he should be walked, i am currently walking him about 2 miles per day (1 mile in the morining and 1 at night) is this too much for him or should he need more.

 

Could i also ask for some advice on what coller he should have, i just have a small normal one but a friend says that i should have a wide one?

 

i know that a lot of you guys have different opinions on what to feed your dog and training but a good overview would be great to start with.

 

Many Thanks

 

Paul
