Hello. Grain allergies are very uncommon in dogs so a grain free diet should not be needed with your pup at this time. I would just recommend getting her on a high-quality small breed puppy food. Some of my favorite food brands for dogs are Science Diet, Royal Canin and Purina Proplan. I like these brands as they do extensive research and testing on their diets to make sure that they keep animals healthy throughout their lives. A puppy this age also should be fed three times daily until she was about six months of age or so. Best of luck as I know the amount of pet foods available currently can be overwhelming.
