Choosing the right food for your puppy is crucial to their growth and overall health.The most important factor is to look for confirmation that the food is 'Complete and Balanced' for the puppy growth period, or 'all life stages'. Then, look for a premium scientific or natural formula rich in high quality protein to support muscle development, including DHA, an essential omega-3 fatty acid for brain and vision development. Choose foods that suit your puppy's specific size, or breed.
If your puppy has digestive issues, opt for foods containing probiotics, which aid in gut health and promote a balanced digestive system, or those specifically formulated for a sensitive stomach. You can also add in a probiotic supplement to support the gut microbiome and overall intestinal health. Many pet owners opt for grain-free diets due to concerns about food sensitivities or allergies in their dogs, though it's important to ensure the formula provides complete and balanced nutrition for the puppy growth stage, including essential proteins, fats, vitamins, and minerals for healthy development. Choosing nutritious food that is well suited to your pup is one of the most important ways to help them thrive, and we have puppy food to suit all shapes, sizes and needs.
