Adult Arden Grange

I have moved Charlie on to the Adult AG (chicken) and it doesn't seem to be agreeing with him. He is 9mths now and is used to eating the large breed puppy/junior AG so I didn't think it would be a problem.
He is a very greedy G. Retriever and has left half his dinner a few times. He has thrown up a couple of times last week and a few times this week, but he seems fine otherwise.
The kibble pieces look enormous compared to the puppy stuff and I wondered if this is putting him off, anyone else found this problem?

Are you feeding him large breed adult? If so then I'd recommend the ordinary chicken and rice as that is a much more acceptable size for most dogs. If he is a greedy dog and not chewing the pieces they may sit uncomfortably in his tummy which is making him sick.

Thanks Becky,
I have just looked at the bag and it is large breed adult, the delivery driver put it straight in the cupboard for me so I didn't really notice.
I think the combination of his greed and the rather large pellets (remind me of Minstrel sweets!) are causing the problem.
I'll need to phone on Monday and order another adult bag, I did find it a bit strange the adult food was cheaper than the puppy version.
Luckily my friend has a Newfoundland who won't have any trouble with the large pellets

The large breed adult food is massive isn't it!
Luckily it's just the right size for Teagan!

Yes, I couldn't believe it the size of it, I take it Teagan is the mastiff, not the Yorkie
