In 2021, I have bought Pomeraniena male puppy from Batangas and another 1 Pom-pom from Quezon City. The latter is healthier coming from a legit dog breeder and comes with a PCCI certificate. The other one only last for less than 24 hours due to some issue with his poops when he arrived at my place. My other two dogs are choco shihtzu which I named Choco and my Maltese named "Melon".
The three of them were eating Aozi puppy since I read online that it is less salty than another brand in the market. After a year they are taking Pedigree dog food and it seems ok with it as well.
According to Pedigree, at 6–8 weeks, puppies will be fully weaned and eating 4–5 meals a day. On my part, I only give two to three meals to my puppies. For your puppy’s first few meals, make sure you give them what they’re used to. A sudden change in diet could lead to an upset tummy, so if you change your puppy’s food, do it gradually over several days. You can also mix the old dog food and the new brand to gradually introduce your pet to his new brand of dry dog food. My Pomeranian like peanut butter very much, so I bought him a jar of peanut butter as a treat. Sometimes I also prepare boiled chicken with liver without salt or any preservatives and my puppies like it very much.

(If the stress of your puppy’s adoption does lead to an upset tummy, just give them water to drink for a couple of mealtimes, followed by a few meals of plain boiled rice until they’re ready for proper puppy food again. The breeder told me that the moment puppy came from four to five hours travel, I should refrain from giving him food right away. Instead, he told me to give the puppy a water and wait for one hour before giving the puppy his meal.
Another tip from Pedigree is that, if your puppy doesn’t eat their food straight away, don't lure them with treats or offer them their food from your hand. This will only reinforce fussy habits. If they haven’t finished their food after 30 minutes, remove it and give them fresh food at the next mealtime. Your puppy will quickly learn to eat the food you put down.
