Hi all, i would really like some input on puppy food
and what others are feeding now,
im a firm believer that a pup needs to be on Puppy specific food for at least 4-6mths old

Right now i am feeding Verus food ,,this is a wonderful food, but its hard for people to get if not on the east coast, and latly im placing pups all across the country and overseas in some cases ,,i dont want my clients having trouble getting the food,,so im looking into other options

I want to find a puppy food that is comparable to Verus or Canidae (i use the canadai can to spice up the pup food now and they love it)

Can everyone post their suggestions and why you have choosen that food, cost is also a factor, i need something around 30.00 for 40lb bag
Natural food ,
Rule of thumb ,if you have to look up the meaning of a ingrediant, its not something i want to put in my pups tummies,, Rolling Eyes Smile

I know asking alot,,any info very much appreciated Confused Smile

I use Royal Canin puppy food. They love it, plus it helps to keep their stools firm. It seems to do great on their digestive system. Then I also use Nuvet vitamins daily. For a 35lb bag, the price is close to $40.00

Just don't over do it. As it seems like you are doing very well. And definitely my prayers are sent your way for a great recovery with this surgery as well as the next. Keep us posted on how you are doing. And take it easy with the grooming. Not too much at one time!!
