Russell Posted April 3, 2007 Report Share Posted April 3, 2007 I always use Beta puppy for my pups & keep them on it till @ 9 months (or whenever the 15kg bag runs out round about that time). Then put them onto Beta dog food & when working them I use Beta Active. How soon till you get your pup ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul in North Lincs. Posted April 4, 2007 Report Share Posted April 4, 2007 mine enjoy the Bakers complete puppy..................but there are cheaper ones out there that are just as good. A couple of times a week I give them mixed in with the buscuits, and now and then I might mix a bit of gravey in with the biscuits.....................its suprizing how much they enjoy a slight variation in their grub.......

Lancs Lad Posted April 4, 2007 Report Share Posted April 4, 2007 Ive got "Jas" on IAMS puppy food. The breader had them on spillers. My boy seems to like it enough and is happily munching. Advice from shop is keep them on what the were eating before, or if changing, introduce new food over a period of time. I worked on the half handful of new stuff to main bulk of the old, getting more and more of the new and reducing the old over a period of a week. Oh, dont forget the Lactol aswell.... Its a milk substitue that Jas has with the food. I did look at Ekenuba and some thing else....blimey, he would eat better than me at the price of that stuff.

Cranfield Posted April 4, 2007 Report Share Posted April 4, 2007 The breeder will tell you what she has been having and its a good idea to keep her on that for a while. Any changes to food should be gradual, or she may be visited with the dreaded "squits". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
