Congrats on your new puppy! Rottie puppies should receive a high quality puppy food formulated specifically for large breed dogs. These types of diets contain the appropriate vitamins and minerals (calcium and phosphorus in particular) to ensure that growth occurs at an appropriate rate. The treats you are feeding are fine as long as they are in concert with an appropriately formulated primary diet. If you find that Bones is eating less food or having some sort of dietary upset, you can certainly change to a different type. Just if you do this, make sure it is done over the course of at least one week. This will reduce the likelihood of any significant diarrhea or vomiting during the transition period. Hope this helps!
