Is Purina Pro Plan puppy food a good choice for my new rescue?

Question

We rescued a puppy from a local spca shelter. A mixed breed golden retriever and believe some type sheppard. We located him thru petfinder. With the rescue we received a couple of bags of Purina Pro Plan puppy food. I have had several people comment it's not a quality food and should try blue buffalo. We have fed eukanuba with a prior pet. My basic question is the pro plan puppy formula ( we got a bag of chicken and a bag of lamb ) a quality product? Thx

If the puppy is willing to eat the diet and is thriving (growing and gaining weight, no vomiting or diarrhea) then this food is agreeing with him and as it is a balanced puppy food then it is ok to feed this. IF there is any reduced weight gain, loose stools, poor coat quality or he is unwilling to eat enugh of the food then changing it may be worthwhile. Not every brand will suit every dog, it is important to feed a diet which is complete and balanced for growth and to continue to monitor the pups progress as he grows and develops
