Avoid completely wetting the pups for the first six weeks. However, clean pups with a clean damp cloth as often as necessary and towel dry the pup. This will dramatically cut the chances for coccidiosis. Pups 4-8 weeks old are fed 3 times per day, out of a hand held dish, a blend of special formula with the best high quality dog food available. What ever food you choose, make sure that it is meat based and does not contain soy as the primary ingredient or contain cow's milk.
Most vets have the high quality foods.
