Is there a preferred brand of puppy food that is healthier for him? He doesn't seem to be interested to much in his food but likes to eat from our other dog's bowl. He will only eat the puppy food if I feed it to him by hand one at a time and he'll eat a few bites from his bowl on his own after that but then he just stops and wanders over to the other dog's bowl.

Is adult dog food okay for him to eat? I don't want to take it away from him if he is actually eating.

How much food should he be getting a day? I don't want him to starve!

Please help - I'm not really sure if he's starving or not. He still seems to have a lot of energy.

Thanks!
Chance did this also...would not be intrested in what his bowl had only what Remmy had. I feed Flint River Rance Adult/Puppy formula. So now they eat the exact same thing. Also I have two kennels so I put thier food in thier kennels when they are in it during the day.
