Ok, I can give you some hints about feeding the puppy. Basically, wolfdog is very native animal, and thus you should feed it "natural" food. That doesn´t mean only meat though.
For a puppy, you should feed for example:
- beef, chicken or even horse meat, fish meat
- chicken, beef or pork hearts
- liver, stomachs or maybe lungs (usually beef, chicken, pork)
- milk, white yoghurt, eggs, cheese, cottage cheese
- vegetable, pasta, oatmeal
- a large spoon of sunflower oil once a week into the food
- also you can feed chicken necks, pig tails and then pig ears and pig feet to add the puppy gelatine
- adds of vitamins and minerals are good too

You offer the food several times per day, everytime you can try something different. Doesn´t matter, if the dog gets one day meat and second day intestines, but the food must be variable. The meat, if comming from good source, offer raw. If you cook it, it destroys the vitamins and minerals.

Some people do offer dog food, in that case try at least to avoid can food and give super premium dry food, like Eukanuba, Eagle Pack, Royal Canin, Purina etc. The costs payed for a quality dry food pay back in the good shape of the dog. However, I still think natural meat is the best.
