Is Purina Pro Plan right for my French Bulldog's sensitive stomach?

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! He is so handsome!!! In my opinion these are the Purina Pro Plan products for puppies, Hill's Science Diet puppy foods and the Royal Canin maxi puppy diet. They are all of great quality and also highly palatable making them perfect for your Frenchie. Good luck and have a great day!

Thank you for submitting your question regarding Lino. I typically use a hydrolyzed prescription diet in the case of food allergies. Royal Canin options would be their Hydrolyzed or Ultimino formulas. Purina ProPlan Veterinary Diets HA is another great option. In these diets, the protein source is chopped into tiny pieces that are too small for the body's immune system to recognize and react to it. I have had great success with all three. I hope this information helps!

Here is some more information: https://taurinedcm.org/?fbclid=IwAR3BivK40DQ8ks6_2i-TYhHJ0hH-uS9uXWXyyH2tbo117bvOqgC3Fg4FMC8 My own dog is on Purina Proplan. Other brands you can switch to are Science Diet and Royal Canin. Always remember a gradual transition to a new diet. Thank you for using PetCoach.

I'm glad to hear that Roo is healthy aside from this soft stool. Yes, it's absolutely fine to switch her to a standard grain-containing diet. The FDA has issued warnings about grain-free diets and a concerning link to dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), so switching is a great idea. I prefer brands like Hill's Science Diet, Purina ProPlan, Royal Canin, Iams, or Eukanuba, as these companies employ veterinary nutritionists and conduct proper testing on their diets. Since Roo is only 6 months old, be sure to look for a puppy food, as these are formulated for growth. When she's about one year old, you can switch her to an adult food. One of the most important things to remember is that anytime you switch her diet - even just opening a new bag of food - it's best to mix the old and new foods together gradually over 5-7 days. Sudden diet changes can trigger some vomiting and/or diarrhea, which is the last thing anyone needs! I hope that everything goes well!

Thanks for usingPetCoach! I would love to help you with this. I prefer easily digestible items like boiled chicken, turkey and fat free ham as the protein and white rice as a carbohydrate. You can always add in a bit of cooked pumpkin as well. If you decide to feed him mostly this, it would be recommended to add a multivitamin. There is a very good source out there. It is a book written by Dr. Patricia Schenk and it is titled home cooked diets for dogs and cats. This will include detailed information if you would like to add more variety to his diet especially if planning to feed him solely this. Good luck and have a great night.

Congrats on your new puppy! Any of the Purina Pro-plan foods are good and they meet WSAVA guidelines for good nutrition. Just make sure to change your puppy slowly to the new food by adding a little bit more of it each day and a little less of the old food.

Any food that says "puppy" should be just fine. You can continue to feed wet, or you can use dry. If she prefers moist food, you could even add a little water to the dry food. All puppies that aren't large breeds can use the normal puppy food. Large breeds need different mineral percentages for their extra large bones. I have fed all of my dogs Purina ProPlan since they were puppies. Here is a link: https://www.drsfostersmith.com/product/prod_display.cfm?pcatid=31180&cmpid=sc
