Congrats on your new puppy! Any of the Purina Pro-plan foods are good and they meet WSAVA guidelines for good nutrition. Just make sure to change your puppy slowly to the new food by adding a little bit more of it each day and a little less of the old food.

    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

    Hello. Purina is a very good dog food manufacturer. They are one of the few companies that actually have veterinary nutritionists overseeing all of their clinical feed trials. I even visited their equine research center several years ago & their facilities & dedication to animal nutrition are phenomenal. Next to Purina, you really cannot go wrong with a Science Diet or Royal Canin food. These are generally the top 3 on any veterinarians recommended food list. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
