Puppies need more calories and nutrients than adult dogs. Choose a food designed for growth.
Food basics
- Use a puppy or all-life-stages formula.
- Larger breeds need large-breed puppy food for joint support.
Feeding tips
- Offer multiple meals per day until six months.
- Track body condition and adjust portions slowly.
If your puppy grows quickly or gains too much weight, check in with your vet.
