Can newborn pitbull puppies drink water?

Newborn pit bull puppies should not drink water until they reach two to four weeks of age. Puppies who are younger than this may aspirate the water, which can clog up the lungs and potentially cause death. Instead, puppies this young should receive nourishment from their mother's milk. You can introduce water in small quantities once the puppies have reached two to four weeks of age. This can be done in a small, shallow bowl, which should be kept low to the ground so the puppies can easily access it. Make sure the water is fresh and changed regularly.
