I have a 8 week old pit/ridge back pup. He will not eat his food. I have tried to give him formula via a bottle and he will not take the nipple. I have tried mixing the formula with his food and he just looks at it.
If you just got him, the new home may have unsettled him. If he doesn't start to eat, after a few days, get him to the vet before the weekend. At 8 weeks, he should be eating a dry puppy chow. Are you offering what the breeder was feeding. It nearly always is best to continue what the breeder was feeding.
He should be already to the vet for 1st puppy check.
If he is still not eating then let the vet know.
They can take his body temp. and do other tests first, let them know so he doesn't receive all the shots if his immune system is down.
It could also be the transition to a new home.
good luck
