Is FreshPet Select dog food healthy for my picky Yorkie & Morkie?

Thanks for your question. FreshPet Select dog food is a fine type of food for your dogs. There is no one "best" dog food. What matters is that your dog likes eating the food, and does well; meaning they are not gassy, their stool is formed and not too hard or soft, their coat appears healthy, and they aren't having signs of allergies. If this food is accomplishing that for your dogs, then I think it is a good food for them. I hope this helps.

Is Fromm dog food a good choice, especially for small breed dogs?

The short answer is yes. I have fed my dogs Fromm which they both enjoyed and did well on. I think it is important to not only evaluate ingredients, but also see how a dog does on a food. They also have a small breed formula which might be a good option for Tiny. Please let me know if that was helpful. Thanks for using Boop by Petco.

Does kibble size matter for my 18-pound small dog's eating habits?

Hi there and thank you for your post! The size of kibble may make it easier for a smaller dog to eat if the kibble bites are smaller. Sometimes, depending on the dog and Its preference for texture, some small dogs prefer large bites over small bites and some dogs prefer small bites over large bite. I would offer both types to see which one is preferred. There are no health benefits over eating small versus large kibble. I hope this helps guide you in the right direction! Please feel free to contact me with any other questions or concerns that you may have

What healthy dog food is best for a small breed switching from grain-free?

Thanks for using Boop by Petco! As you have probably noticed there are plenty of diets in the market. There are a few that stand out in my opinion in terms of quality and palatability. I really like the Science Diet, Royal Canin and Purina Pro Plan products. A diet that I have found to be of very good quality, affordable and dogs love is the Purina Pro Plan shredded blends. You can find that at your local pet store or online. Otherwise any of the diets of the previously mentioned brands would also be good choices for Harley. Good luck!

My puppy eats less. What food size or grain-free is best for her?

Decreasing her eating amount after a growth spurt is normal. They probably recommended large breed puppy so she wouldn’t grow to fast which can cause bone problems. Once she’s full grown I recommend regular adult food. No reason to do either large breed or small breed since she will be medium size. I don’t think grain free food is worth it. I like a well balanced dog food such as Hills. They do research on their food and include the optimum amount of nutrients, rather than excess. Your breed could become overweight so please adjust the quantity of food to keep her on the lean side. Hills does have some Natural foods, and many speciality foods such as those for sensitive skin and stomach, joints, weight management, and for medical problems also. My dogs start on Hills and stay on for life, changing the specific food as they grow, and even into their senior years, or with medical problems. There is a lot of advertising to sell different dog foods but I like to base my choice on
