A pet dog can eat dog food at about 6 weeks, when it usually weans. Note that at this age its constitution and gut are still weak, so the kibble must be softened, not fed dry; soak it in warm water or goat milk.
Goat milk is nutritious; after weaning you can feed goat milk or goat-milk-soaked kibble for a while.
