Your's is a puppy still correct? What breed? Perhaps, if you prefer to maintain the same brand you should be feeding

Yaya, mine is a puppy but I am giving him the performance but not puppy. The size of the kibble seems okay to him.

Is there a specific reson why you are using the adult formula? Btw, what breed/size is your dog?
Some ppl will insist that puppies be fed puppy formula.

if i'm not mistaken, it depends on the amount of protien in the formulae.
adults will need around 25% to 28%. hyper active ones will need more than 30%. somet

No specific reason just because I asked and the breeder told me that it can be eaten for my puppy. Yes, I am wondering that too whether I should change to Puppy ones, so that need you guys expert to advice me. BTW, my puppy is GSD.

Get puppy food. That's the best for growing pups. Also, if possible, find one which is for large breed dogs.

If you look around, there are many brands that cater to large breed dogs.... Eukanuba, I think Acana also have.... all it involves is a bit of research to find the right food suitable for our dogs.

Lazy to go through the thread from previous pages but I think Digitral / Syrian wrote one where the bottom of the pack is filled with worms, right? Which dog-food brand was that again?

I just wanna make sure I avoid that. Right now, I am feeding Casper Acana for Adult Small Breed and Moonie eats Nutri-Edge Stage 1. I want to switch to Blackwood puppy for Moonie and Canidae for Casper.

one of my groomers recommend Nutro lamb&rice wor.....Her MS also makan this one, the fur nice and poo not smelly.

I've tried Nutro Chicken, Nutro Lamb, Acana Small Breed puppy, Acana salmon, Acana Lamb, BW Lamb, BW Puppy, Eagle Pack Holistic, Canidae ALL Life Stage......... (of course all sample pack lah)
Since FIFI is 7 months old, she started to lost interest on her kibbles. Last time when she's young, she'll just sapu all the kibbles and ask for more. Now ah, smell smell, then walk away.........Especially breakfast time, like no appetite. Dinner time is better, if morning eat little, dinner will finish her kibbles automatically.

If i add water to her kibbles, she'll eat them. But i seldom do so as her fur will be dirty.
I think when FIFI reaches 10 month old, I'll feed her only once a day lah, dinner only, then only she'll makan all her kibbles, easy job for me.

Syrian, i think disregard of the kibbles' brand, try add water to Hepy's kibbles, i think he'll makan one.

Yes, dogs love their kibble wet and soggy. Even Casper is the same, today official 1 year old, always very choosy with his food but when add water, he will whallop!

Ya ... hun mentioned before. If u add water, the taste of the kibbles will be nicer and stronger. But i dun wan to add water to his kibbles for him. Why?
1. His beard will be dirty.
2. His mouth will stink.
3. Easier for tartar build-up.
4. Poops will be softer - difficult to pick up.

So, i wanna try out a range of kibbles until i found one which suits him and also best, it is economical but good one. If worse to come, then I'll jz switch to orijen (kinda expensive though). Between Nutro and NutriEdge, which taste is nicer and have stronger smell ?? Hepy doesn't like BW and EP anymore @@. The Eagle Pack is new!! I jz bought and he only ate it once. The petshop recommended me to get gravy, which i won't. I will not add any flavourings to his kibbles nor give him any wet food. I dun support those stuffs tongue.gif.

I think nutriedge has nicer smell than others, and the taste is better i think. But as u know lah, nicer and stronger smell = smelly poop lah, haha..........
I too already had tried so many kibbles liao, besides orijen and nutriedge(the 1st kibbles being fed to FIFI), but yet result still the same.........problem can be solved by adding water into it doh.gif
Now dun bother lah, just give her Acana Puppy Small breed. Plan to feed once a day, confirm makan one, hungry lah.

Hahah .. yaya .. i know. Stronger taste will result in smellier poops too laugh.gif. That's why i still prefer BW and Eagle Pack but he doesn't wanna eat. Sometimes he eat, but sometimes he's like a bull @@.

Acana taste nice or not ??? Much economical than Orijen. Orijen would be my last choice. Might check out NutriEdge. Btwn, whr did u get all those sample packs ?? I wanna get a sample pack of nutriEdge first before buying a big pack.

nutriedge no sample lah..........i get nutro choice, acana, EP, Canidae sample pack from a small grooming shop at Kuchai lama.
The acana small breed puppy looks nice, kibbles size is the smallest i think. But for FIFI, still the same lah..........
If not mistaken Mikey's mommy still got Acana Puppy, u can get from her as she wanna switch back to BW.

How's Nutriedge? Haven't heard much about it... one of my furkids did win a whole pack in a dress up competition a year ago but used it as a treat instead...

All I know is that they 'sponsor' or are 'endorsed by' a lot of the Malaysian champion breeders which is not neccesarily a good thing and that their redemption program is (to me anyways) unethical as they offer a puppy as the highest tier redemption.

Marketing aside, how's the food?
