My dogs eat Royal Can in Puppy food until they are 8-12 months old, depending on their size....but usually by 10 months old, you can switch to adult formula Royal Can in. Have you tried the adult mini.....either the Yorkie breed specific or the mini adult that has the picture of the Jack Russel on the front of the bag? Some of mine prefer the Yorkie breed specific, some like the adult with the jack Russel on the front, my older ones 5-8 years old like the adult indoor with the different shaped kibble....but it is all RC mini....I am not at all familiar with the nutritional composition of the one your lab is getting. You can look on the bag and compare the formulas yourself....you can email RC and ask them if your Yorkie can eat the same thing the lab is eating....I am thinking it may be too "senior" for what your youngster needs....but you could certainly course grind some up and pour it over the mini adult formula RC you offer your young lady....RC is very palatable and most dogs like it and eat it easily....Did you ever try the RC puppy kibble, or ny of the other RC mini kibble on your young lady? But she is old enough to safely go to adult formula.....I am just not sure about the adult formula your lab is getting.[/quote]
