High quality dry puppy food

I have never really researched dog nutrition before but have spent ALL morning reading this section with fascination. My puppy is getting fed the dreaded bakers and I want her off it ASAP. (Thank you dogsey people for enlightening me!) I want her to start eating one of the good quality foods mentioned such as JWB, wainrights etc. Does anyone know of any good foods that also do a puppy variety? In fact does she actually need "puppy" food or will normal food suffice. I am off to PAH later so will take a looksy then but just wondered does anyone know or could offer me some advice.

How old is your puppy?

I feed one of our dogs Simpson Premium Adult Chicken sensitive which he's doing really well on, I chose it because it's good quality and other dry foods of roughly the same quality are often more expensive.

Oops should have mentioned her age, shes 3 months old. Thanks

Thanks, yeah I'd probably keep to puppy food.

My favs are ...

Fish4dogs
Acana
Orijen

No animals appear to require life stage foods until pet food manufacturers decided this (as they did re breeds) !

Most dog foods do puppy varieties, junior, adult, working, senior etc etc.

There are HUNDREDS of dog foods on the market.

A lot depends on your shopping habits, ie do you order on line, have a specialist pet shop or have to rely on PAH.

PAH do not stock all the top of the range foods.

Good Brands

Orijen
Arden Grange
JWB
Burns

Not all will suit all dogs, or all pockets etc.

Generally choose those which have a named source of animal protein, at most two grains, preferably oats and/or rice (or potato), no added colours, etc.

Gonna need a pen I think to write all this and turn up at the pet shop with my list lol

We've recently found this .. and for a dry food have seen some decent improvements in the dogs fed on it

www.symplypetfoods.co.uk met the rep and had a long chat with him straightforward food put together well palatable, poos are small Lamb & Rice particularly well tolerated by two of mine with v sensitive guts to dry food . all dogs in class liked it as a training reward

If you definitely want to feed a kibble, then I'd recommend one of this group:

Arden Grange
Fish4Dogs
Orijen (very pricey!)


I don't actually like kibble and so I feed a wet food, Wainwrights trays. So far my Lab is doing better on this than on anything else, up to and including raw.

Good luck - remember it is a case of trial and error. It's taken me a year to find a food that didn't cause Dex to itch!

so puppy food is just money making?
