For the past days I've been reading that great dane puppies should not be on puppy food due to its nutritional balance doesn't meet their nutritional requirements and they should be on a adult kibble formula. is this true or when is the appropriate t
Hi there and thank you for your question. There is currently no research out there hat supports this claim. Lance should be on a good quality puppy food until he is about 1 year old- sounds like you have a nice food there (Hills Science Large Breed Puppy). That will do just fine until he is 1 year old. Puppies need lots of extra vitamins and minerals in their diets as well as extra calories to match the amount of energy they are expending on growth which a puppy food contains. I would not change his food to adult just yet. I hope this helps!

I am sorry to hear about Ralphie's issue with his leg! If he has never had an x-ray I would consider having your vet take one to see if there is anything that could be done. I do believe Hills Science Diet Large Breed is a great dog food. I usually recommend this or Purina Pro Plan large breed food for a large breed dog.

I have 25 days old laborodar puppy...what foods are feed my puppy?
Any high quality Large breed puppy food will do. I am not sure what brands are available in India; however some of my recommendations are Royal Canin, Hill's Science Diet, Wellness, Evo, Merrick, etc. If these are not available then look for the AFCO label on the bag, which indicates that the food meets certain requirements and regulations to ensure it is fit to provide your pet a well balanced nutritional diet.

We have four dogs at home. One is eating Science Diet, two The Honest Kitchen and a puppy on loyall from breeder. We took puppy to training and they tried switching her fully from loyall to the honest kitchen and she was pooping a lot. So they went b
As you've experienced, diet changes can certainly cause some changes in stool volume, and for some dogs, can cause a bit of vomiting and diarrhea. When it comes to the countless brands of dog food on the market today, it's overwhelming to pick one for your pup. I recommend brands that have been formulated by a board-certified veterinary nutritionist, are manufactured in their own facility (less cross-contamination that facilities that manufacture numerous formulations), conduct AAFCO feeding trials, and meet WSAVA guidelines. When it comes down to it, the brands that meet those criteria include Hill's Science Diet, Purina, Royal Canin, Eukanuba, and Iams. As a result, I would recommend switching Lilly over to the Science Diet puppy food. Just remember that anytime you switch foods, be sure to do so by gradually mixing the old and new foods together over a 5-7 day period. I hope that everything goes well!

I’m getting a bouvier puppy that will be my mobility service dog. What supplements and stuff do you suggest to help make sure his joints and stuff stay healthy.
Great question. The most important thing is to pick a good quality diet...either science diet, royal canin, iams, or Purina. I would recommend feeding large breed puppy. In addition, glucosamine and condroitin is great for the joints, especially in large breed. Good luck.
