A five week old puppy should be getting their mother's milk until they are weaned at six weeks. If this isn't possible ask your vet what type of food your puppy should have. - Try boiling rice,minced meat and tiny bits of veggies and MASH it all up together. If the puppy won't eat that, Try bottle feeding with with regular baby formula 3 times a day.
If the puppy is only 5 weeks old, it is most likely going to be drinking milk from it's mother. BUT, if it is away from it's mother, feed it wet food. You can get puppy wet food at most of your local pet stores- Petco, Petsmart, etc.
Puppies should not be separated from their mother until they are eight-weeks old. Between 6 and 8-weeks begin feeding your puppy 3 to 4-times a day, with a well-balanced puppy food.
You can start giving them some puppy food with water mixed in, then gradually give them the food dry.
I think you're supposed to feed it in the morning afternoon and evening.
softer foods, my friends dog also had to give it pills so it can eat better.

How often do you feed 6 week old kittens and what do you feed them?
6 week old kittens should still be with their mother, if they do not have a mother then you should mix a tiny bit of soft kitten food with kitten milk (never use cow's milk) and slowly decrease the amounts of milk as he gets older. Make sure they get enough food by feeling their tummy-if it is hard, they have had enough, if it is soft, then they need some more. Don't feed them too much at once or it will make them sick. You should feed them about five or six times a day or whenever they are hungry. :)
