Topic Dog Boards / Feeding / Puppy stopped gaining weight as picking at food

My lot seem to have slowly got fed up with Arden Grange, has anyone else found this? I am worried because Bullmastiff pup who is now 6mnths old has been gradually gaining about 1 kilo a week, but weighed her today and in two weeks she has only gained 20grams.  Is this normal for them to slow down at this age? Or is she now not eating enough, she was eating Adult salmon and rice as was told better to feed large breed pups adult food.

The weight gain does slow down and go more in fits and starts from about 5 months in my breed with pups often becoming picky as they are no longer needing such large amounts for growth.

yes they do slow down, i have some picky dogs, mostly females, quite common in my breed, i feed Happy Dog, they all seem to love it, i also mix a little minced tripe in with it, i find it helps, especially with puppies
