What Blue Buffalo food is best for my 9-week Golden Retriever puppy?

Question

I have a 9 week old male golden retriever, mom is 50lbs, dad is 58lbs and the breeder has him on Purina Puppy, which I want to change him off of as fast as possible. Out of the three, which BB food is best? 1)Freedom Puppy Chicken Recipe Grain-Free Dry Dog Food 2)Life Protection Chicken & Rice Puppy or 3)Life Protection Chicken & Rice Puppy Large Breed? Pet's info: Dog | Golden Retriever | Male | neutered | 1 month and 19 days old | 62 lbs

Congratulations on your new puppy! Out of those three I would choose the Life protection chicken and rice large breed. Golden Retrievers are a breed that are susceptible to heart disease and grain free diets have been linked to an increased risk of heart disease and so I would always avoid those diets. At this time the link is not completely understood but it's best not to risk it. Henry will be a large breed dog and so he needs large breed puppy food to regulate his growth which makes him less prone to skeletal diseases. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.
