| Leila eating adult food! Ok so Leila WON'T eat her puppy food unless it is mixed with the gerber cereal. I have been trying to slowly take her off of that mixture. Well she will eat Tyson's adult food (same brand) but won't touch her baby food dry. Is this bad for her? I don't know..........they both eat eukanuba food.

| How old is Leila??? Someone said they can go on adult food at 6 months, but that seems a little young to me - yet, if she won't eat puppy food, well then..........adult food is better than none. I have the same problem with Rowdy - he won't eat his puppy food unless it has something mixed in, e.g. gerber chicken stick or some other type of people meat (I guess he's a little carnivore!). Tonight he had roast, potatoes and carrots mixed in. |

| I have the same problem with Polly eating the adult food. Doc said as long as she eats. It's hard when you have other dogs. I free feed my three, Polly is 6 months now and has been trying to eat it since I got her.

My CHloe wouldnt eat puppy food either so she eats Adult food too. YOu could always give her a puppy vitamin to supplement what shes not getting from the adult food.

| I have to feed all my dogs the same food too. They all want what eachother's got. I think at about 6 months old it's pretty safe to give adult food. |
