How old is that puppy ?
Hope it was atleast 8-weeks before being seperated from it's mom.

With regards to what breed it is, a mixed (crossBreed) dog has no breed though sellers could coin a breedName for it e.g a Boerboel + GermanSherp mix could be called BoerboelSherperd; but in reality, they have no specific breed, and there's never any certainity such dog would have up to 30% traits from each parents. Genetics dey somehow.

Funny thing is, there's every possibility & probability either or both parents are (very) imPure. now imagine the result of crossBreeding such animal ?

When you love an animal, it's breed is hardly a concern.

With regards to what to feed him/her, there's JO-JO dog food, smoked or parboiled fish, indomie, rice, beans, etc. There are Canned foods for dogs though don't know your financial capacity.

What I would suggest is, go to where they sell chicken in Kilo, ask them if they have Chicken legs, and chicken heads. if they don't ask them where you can buy such. if they fail to tell you, keep asking till you get a source. Buy the chicken heads and legs which is much more cheaper.

Also please avoid giving Fish or meat with bones. You might have been made to believe Dogs like bones, same way they made us believe rabbits love Carrots, and cats love milk but if you own Cats, you would know the wonders milk could do to them.

You don't want a pet whose a picky eater. it's now, at this very early stage you train it on what to feed on. Even if you're very wealthy, ensure you feed it loal food so you wouldn't be on your toes whenever you're low on funds.
I sugest you equally add multiVitamins to it's water on daily or weekly basis. Don't worry, the multiVitamins mustn't be specifically made for dogs, those for humans (especially babies) are very okay.

Ask the seller if the dog have been taken to vet to get it's shots. if No, please do so asap. it's not costly and would help the dog in the long run. Ensure you've got a good vet, not one whose a Vet because they couldn't find work
