My puppy broke his leg. What food helps bone healing and strength?

Question

At night my dog goes to roam for 10 min and comes back daily. One day he was late and I checked and found him laying on road crying and moaning. I rushed to the hospital and called the doctor and she attended him with intense care and we got a x ray of his leg and got to know that his leg bone was broken. Now Doc says he is alright. Thank God. Now I want you to help me with the correct kind of nutrition or food that will strengthen his bone. Pet's info: Dog | Mixed Breed | Male | 9 months and 4 days old | 2.64 lbs

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Poor Cesar! What a scary time! I am glad he will be okay. I would feed him a commercial puppy food since he is under 1 year of age. I like Royal Canin, Hill's Since diet and Purina Proplan or Focus. There isn't anything extra needed just balanced nutrition for a growing dog. Good luck!
