Puppy Food FAQ
Q: What is the best food to feed my puppy?
A: The best food for your puppy is one that supports healthy growth, is easy to digest, and meets their nutritional needs. Look for complete and balanced formulas specially made for puppies, such as Royal Canin Puppy, Hills Science Diet Puppy, or Pro Plan Puppy.
Q: How much should I feed my puppy?
A: Feeding amounts depend on your puppy's age, breed, and weight. Most puppy food brands provide feeding guidelines on the packaging. As a general rule, puppies eat more frequently than adult dogs—usually 3–4 meals per day.
Q: When should I switch from puppy food to adult dog food?
A: Most puppies transition to adult food between 12–18 months, depending on their breed size. Small breeds can switch earlier, while large breed puppies may benefit from staying on puppy food longer to support joint and bone development.
Q: Can I feed my puppy adult dog food?
A: It’s not recommended. Puppy food is specifically formulated with higher protein, fat, and essential nutrients to support growth and development. Feeding adult food too early may lead to nutrient deficiencies.
Q: Should I choose dry or wet puppy food?
A: Both dry and wet puppy food have benefits. Dry food helps keep teeth clean and is convenient, while wet food is more palatable and hydrating. Some pet owners combine both to offer variety and added nutrition.
Q: Do you sell grain-free puppy food?
A: Yes, we stock a range of grain-free puppy food options for puppies with sensitivities or dietary preferences. Check the product descriptions to find grain-free formulations.
