Which is better Nutro Puppy Wholesome Essentials Chicken or Natures Recipe Puppy? I don’t like Scinece Diet, Royal Canin, or Iams so please don’t suggest those I just like to know which out of those two are better for her. Thanks!
I personally prefer Nutro. It tastes good so dogs and puppies like it and in general it is lower in calories so it's an excellent food to stay on lifelong without becoming overweight. I find a brand I like, and that my dog likes, and I stay with that brand for the life of the dog. I do not like switching brands all the time, it can cause stomach upset and make fussy eaters. I go from puppy, to adult, to less active if needed, then senior all in the same brand. Nutro has excellent choices in all of the different age categories.

Any brand name of food that you can suggest for 3 and a half month lab .... so that he gets all the sufficient vitamins minerals for his healthy growth
Labs have a tendency to grow too fast, and as they get older to get fat. Therefore I like to use Nutro large breed puppy dry, then switch to adult large breed, and weight management later in life if needed. I like Nutro because it’s a complete diet and lower in calorie than most of the other dog foods. Dogs like it and there are several different Nutro varieties for you to choose from.

I have a question about certain brand dog foods. I feel like there’s so much controversy regarding Purina, science diet, even Nutro etc. People will say they contain a lot of harmful ingredients. It’s so hard to settle on a particular dog food knowin
The Internet says a lot of things. Petfood is one of those issues that people can have a lot of convictions about. However the question is have those individuals had actual training about pet nutrition. In making choices about pet food, I often look at a history of recalls. Newer pet food companies and boutique brands are more likely to have recall issues because they tend to not have as much quality control in the production of their food. Mistakes do happen and any company can have a recall but that is something to pay very close attention to. The older, more established companies tend to have good protocols in place to catch any errors before their food gets out on the shelves and pets get sick. I believe Nutro does offer a line of pet food that is more holistically-based as well. You should be able to find a lot of variety within the brand and know that it is all high-quality. Most pets who eat Nutro tend to have good coat and stool quality too, this is a good sign. I hope this is

I have a 4 month old yellow lab puppy, male. The food we were sold at the pet store picking him up was “nutrisource small and medium breed puppy” he is a large breed puppy so I’m wondering if I need to switch his food. Also wondering if nutrisource i
I would recommend keeping Oakley on the food he was on for 2 weeks after you take him home. Then if the food he is on you don't want to continue you can gradually transition him to another type of food. Some good brands are: Science Diet, Eukanuba, Iams, Purina, Proplan, Nutro, etc. I typically like the big brand name foods since they do the research and they have veterinarians on staff to discuss things. If you feel Oakley is doing well with the Nutrisource you can keep him on it unless he starts having issues. Thank you for using Boop by Petco.

Which food I have to feed for more growth I mean good nutrition and all baalnced diet ...
Any food that has an AAFCO certification label on the bag has been tested to be well balanced. And any food that is labeled for puppies is designed to support growth. So I would go with a small breed, puppy dog food with an AAFCO label. I really like the following brands: Royal Canin, Hill's Science diet, Evo, and Eukanuba. Best wishes taking care of your new puppy. And don't forget that vaccinations usually start around 8 weeks of age, so schedule an appt with your veterinarian soon if you haven't done so already. Take care.
