Puppy food for happy, healthy growth
Puppies have significantly more demanding nutritional needs compared to adult dogs. This is because they require a higher calorie intake during crucial growth stages, alongside additional nutrients necessary for developing strong bodies and healthy bones.
Every calorie a puppy consumes should be rich in nutrients to ensure they get the maximum benefit from every bite. Since puppies have smaller stomachs than adult dogs, feeding them smaller kibbles more frequently helps maintain the ideal balance for healthy growth. Discover recipes crafted to nurture growing bones and provide all the essential nutrients for your playful companion.

How does your puppy food support growing bones?

My puppy is a picky eater, what should I do?
Puppies can indeed be temperamental with their food! It's important to be patient. Try establishing a routine, offering food at set times, and removing it after 15-20 minutes if uneaten. Avoid offering too many treats between meals. If you're concerned, please don't hesitate to contact us for personalised advice.

What are the benefits of feeding puppy-specific food?
Puppy-specific food is formulated to meet the higher energy and nutrient demands of growing puppies. It contains essential proteins for muscle development, fats for energy, and a balanced mix of vitamins and minerals for overall health, immunity, and brain development.
How much food should I feed my puppy?
Feeding guidelines are provided on each of our puppy food product pages and packaging. These are based on your puppy's age and anticipated adult weight. Remember that these are general recommendations, and you should adjust quantities based on your puppy's activity level and condition. Always ensure fresh water is available.
When should I switch my puppy to adult food?
The transition from puppy to adult food typically depends on your puppy's breed and size. Smaller breeds mature faster, often around 9-12 months, while larger breeds may need puppy food until 12-18 months of age. We recommend consulting your vet or checking our product guidelines for specific advice.
