Due to the recent FDA research on grain free food I am looking into switching my Shih Tzu/Maltese mix from Whole Earth farms grain free to something different. What would you recommend is a good, healthy brand for a small breed dog who is 4 and does
Thanks for using Boop by Petco! As you have probably noticed there are plenty of diets in the market. There are a few that stand out in my opinion in terms of quality and palatability. I really like the Science Diet, Royal Canin and Purina Pro Plan products. A diet that I have found to be of very good quality, affordable and dogs love is the Purina Pro Plan shredded blends. You can find that at your local pet store or online. Otherwise any of the diets of the previously mentioned brands would also be good choices for Harley. Good luck!

I'm ordering puppy food for Kiba and I would also like to order his first batch of adult dog food because he's 1 in a couple months and I'd like to save up on delivery cost. The company I'm using has a normal adult dog food and they also have one spe
That's a great way to plan ahead! As a Havanese, Kiba could eat either of the diets you mentioned with no adverse consequences. However, if his puppy food is lamb based, I would be more inclined to try the small breed lamb based diet so as not to change protein sources. I always recommend starting with a small bag of the new food in the chance that Kiba either won't eat it or develops stomach upset from the new diet. Anytime you change to a new diet, please do so by gradually mixing the foods together over 5-7 days.

What would be the best wet dog food for her weighing 3.3 lbs. 4 years and has Periodontal desease? And can I purchase at Petco or Petsmart? Thank you
As far as dog food goes, I tend to recommend Hill's Science Diet or the higher end Purina products. If you are looking to go a more natural route you would want to try something like Earthborn or Acana. Periodontal disease can be delayed with regular teeth brushing if Ratchett will allow it. You should be able to purchase most of what I mentioned at one of those stores. Hope this makes sense.

I have a 5 1/2 month old Puggle/English Bulldog named Bella. It is estimated that she will weigh approximately 35 pounds as an adult. Both the pet store and vet recommended large breed dog food for her. About a week ago she decreased her food intake
Decreasing her eating amount after a growth spurt is normal. They probably recommended large breed puppy so she wouldn’t grow to fast which can cause bone problems. Once she’s full grown I recommend regular adult food. No reason to do either large breed or small breed since she will be medium size. I don’t think grain free food is worth it. I like a well balanced dog food such as Hills. They do research on their food and include the optimum amount of nutrients, rather than excess. Your breed could become overweight so please adjust the quantity of food to keep her on the lean side. Hills does have some Natural foods, and many speciality foods such as those for sensitive skin and stomach, joints, weight management, and for medical problems also. My dogs start on Hills and stay on for life, changing the specific food as they grow, and even into their senior years, or with medical problems. There is a lot of advertising to sell different dog foods but I like to base my choice on

well, I just got a new puppy given to me and she is a permainan puppy but I dont know what kind of dog food to buy for her.
Hello and thank you for reaching out to Boop by Petco. Congratulations on the new puppy! I recommend purchasing a Small Breed Puppy food. Any of the well-known large dog food companies (Hills, Purina, Royal Canin, Blue Buffalo) will have excellent, well-balanced diets for puppies. There are feeding recommendations on the dog food bags that tell you how much to feed based on weight. Always make sure she has access to water. Do not feed human food, as many foods that we eat (chocolate, onions, garlic, avocado, raisins, grapes) are highly toxic to dogs. I hope this is helpful!
