Sea-fish cleared out from bones is better for feeding than fresh-water fish; it must be cut into small pieces too. Many pit bull terriers love fish. Milk food is very useful for little puppy as the growing organism assimilates protein contained in it very well. Besides, vitamins and microelements exist there too. Therefore it is desirable to nourish a puppy, especially little one, on cow milk, kefir, and curd cheese ever and again. Eggs are too healthy for little puppies as well. For them to digest much better it is necessary to mix them with other kitchen-stuff or prepare an omelette and feed the puppy. Fat is a generator and also adds lustre to the hair, but excessive amount of fats is very harmful, therefore it is particularly important to keep lipoid balance.
