What type of dog food is recommended for Mickey? What is the serving amount he should receive and how many times a day?
Thanks for using Boop by Petco! There are many great diets out there that you may find at your local pet store. I personally prefer the Purina Pro Plan shredded blends for puppies as they are generally inexpensive, are of great quality and dogs seems to love it. For the amount to feed her, I advice you follow the guidelines that you will find in the back of the bag. Keep in mind that you should get the puppy blend. Also, keep in mind that as she grows, you will notice in the back of the bag that it will advice you feed her more. When she becomes a year old, she should be switched to an adult diet. Good luck and have a good night!

Does a large breed pup (Labrador in this case) necessarily need to be fed specifically large breed puppy food; or would a puppy food that is complete and balanced for large breed puppies and all life stages be okay? Cal and Pho is the same as the lar
I was taught by my professors (who were specialist in the field) hat large breed puppies should eat a large breed puppy formula until they are at least 1 year old. As you can see, on your label it indicates the minimum amount of Ca and Ph but it does not indicate the maximum, all that you know is that it minimally has that amount. Typically there will be differences in the amount of calories and protein as well. All life stages are either feeding essentially a regular puppy food or a normal adult dog food. The main issue I see with this of food is that is can cause adult dogs to get heavy because it has the calorie content for a growing puppy. Given that Charlie is now one year old, you are likely fine to feed an adult dog food and I recommend to stick with a large breed formula as it has a lower calorie content and additives for joint health. In general, my favorite brand of dog food is an easy to digest food such as Royal Canin. Many dogs who eat this diet have nice coats, good sto

Molly is 7 months old and 38 lbs. vet says she shouldn’t get over 45 lbs. I feed her LARGE BREED Purina pro plan puppy food. Vet said I should switch to regular. But all I see is SMALL BREED OR LARGE BREED. Which should I use? Large or small?
I am sorry if my answer was not clear. The Purina ProPlan Focus Puppy Chicken and Rice is a regular puppy formula. It is not specific to small or large breed dogs and this would be most appropriate for her given your veterinarian's recommendation. You are correct in that large and small breed formulas exist, but this is neither. I hope this information helps!

New pure bred lab puppy on the way, will be 8 weeks old when I bring him home. I am overwhelmed by the food choices. I am on a budget but will buy whatever food I need to that is healthy for my dog. Best puppy food for labs that won’t break the bank?
When cost is a concern I go with Purina Pro-Plan or Purina One. Really good foods actually. I suggest this one for a growing lab. He should be on a large breed puppy food until he is about 10 months old then you can go to adult food. Shop around as you may find a lower price for it somewhere else. ( https://www.walmart.com/ip/Purina-ONE-SmartBlend-Natural-Large-Breed-Formula-Dry-Puppy-Food-16-5-lb-Bag/21553442 ) Don't buy into all this grain-free, all natural, blue buffalo junk. It is not worth the money and these diets have now been shown in clinical studies to cause heart disease. Stick with companies that do clinical trials on their foods to make sure they are balanced and healthy (like Purina). Hope this helps. Best wishes!

Dry food recommendations please
Choose a good quality food with a named protein source. Avoid meat meals and by products. Stay away from store or discount brands. These typically contain low quality ingredients an dmore fillers. A "large breed" formula would be recommended. Premium brands include the Royal Canin line, Acana, Canidae and Orijen. The website www.dogfoodadvisor.com is an excellent resource for comparing foods.
