When to switch from puppy to Adult food I have Buster on Orijen dry puppy food. He is 10 months old. I was wondering at what age do I switch him to the Adult food?:confused: |
Have you asked your vet for their opinion? My boy came home to me at a year old (exactly) and he was already on adult food. I would ask your vet. Just remember that when you do transition, do it slowly. It can be the same brand, but different formula and you don't want to shock your baby's system. A slow transition can help avoid upset tummys. Good luck! |
My vet said at about six months, so that's what I did for Spike. Switch him over gradually, so if you're at the end of your bad of puppy food, buy another one as well as an adult one so you can mix the two. I started Spike on about 1/4 adult to 3/4 puppy, and then gradually upped it (about once a week). Just keep an eye on them, but we had no problems! |
Thank you for your suggestions. I have a little of his puppy food left so I will buy some adult food and start switching him over. Buster is my first dog and it has been a learning curve as he had multiple health issues in the beginning. I can not thank everyone at YT enough for helping me throught the difficult issues as well as the day to day concerns. I have learned so much and look forward to many years with my sweet furbaby Buster. :) |
