Food for puppy

Post by MNM » Thu Jan 15, 2015 10:04 am

Can an 8 week old puppy be feed adult dry dog food? I like to feed salmon based food as our mini aussie has allergies and this helps, but can not find any puppy food that is salmon based. Can I feed the puppy the same dog as our mini aussie eats?
Thank you,
MIchelle

Personally, I wouldn't feed an 8 week old puppy anything that wasn't labeled as either "puppy food" or approved for "all life stages", but that is just me.

For what its worth, there are many, high quality, salmon based foods that are approved for all life stages readily available.

Depends on the food, there are a lot of very poor quality fish formulas around because good ones are relatively expensive.

Feed it what ever you want. Forget the label as many "high performance " feeds are also listed for Puppies.
