My puppy is nearly 5 months old and im currently feeding him on nature diet puppy. It says on the website to continue feeding on the puppy version until 6 months of age. Would it be alright to change over to the adult range now (as they do a nice range of flavours compared to just the one puppy) or is it best to wait?
Hi Guest,
We changed our bitch over from puppy to adult at 4 ½ months of age (as she is a large breed and was over 20Kg at this point). We have a male pup whose currently on the puppy diet and I'm going to leave him on it until he's about 5 - 5 ½ months old and then change him over to the adult (as he's slightly on the small side for his age).
If your dog is a large breed then you could probably change them over now, though I would be careful about trying too many flavours - I gave our bitch a lamb and rice one and she had diarrhoea as a result - I put her onto original instead (as this is the closest to puppy, ingredients wise) and she was fine. She's over a year old now and eats all flavours :)
