Pups that are approaching weaning age are making a dietary transition from
milk to solid foods. Sometimes this change can result in lower protein
intake for a short time as they adapt to solids. Lower dietary protein, and
likely other stressors that occur during the weaning stages, can make
youngsters' immune systems weaker and thus more susceptible to infection.
