Hi,

Our pup will be a year old in a month so I'm starting to think about transitioning him to adult food. He's been on canned Blue Buffalo chicken dinner for puppies and I've been using their turkey and rice dry food for treats for trick training. With the weather being so cold, he hasn't been able to go for walks since December and seems to be getting a bit portly so moving him to adult food is likely a good idea anyway.

I know that I'll need to do the transition slowly. We want to stay on canned food for the main food since there were crystals in his urine briefly a few months ago and the vet thought that the canned would be less conducive to that. However, I'm wondering whether I should stay with Blue Buffalo and whether chicken is the best food for him. He seems to be scrating a lot....

Thanks.

Linda
