Commercial Diets For Large & Giant Breed Puppies
The aim with large-giant breed puppies is to grow them slowly. Growing too fast can mean they are more at risk of growth challenges. No diet is perfect and every dog is an individual.
Rotating through brands and flavours will provide the puppy a variety of nutrients and allow their gut flora to flourish. Dogs who are fed the same thing all the time are at higher risk of developing allergies and food sensitivities.
