I have recieved a 9 week old flea ridden and starved puppy. I have gotten the fleas taken care of and bought every kind of puppy food hard and soft, and this pup won't eat. The only thing she will even touch is raw hamburger. She won't even eat the $1.99 can of dog food,any suggestions?

If you leave the dog food long enough she will eat it. Sounds somewhat cruel, but she will. If you cave in and give her raw meat she'll hold out until she gets it again, or can't wait any longer.

Giving dogs raw meat will basically teach them to be aggressive. I would also do as Chris said, leave it and she will eventually learn that she is not getting anything else.
