Good morning everyone,
Looking for some help. I just switched my puppy boy Benzo to Fromm Four Star from Nutrisource puppy. He is 6 months old and 45-50 lbs. He was already starting to show signs of allergies while on Nutrisource so I decided after doing research that this line might be right for him. He was on puppy food while on Nutrisource which was not grain free and I would have loved to switch to the Fromm's puppy food but that one is not grain free either and I have been recommended by many to stay away from grains with him. So that is how I came to the Four Star line. I was giving him 3 cups of Nutrisource a day which was the recommended amount for his weight and age.The recommended amount on the Fromm's bag is 3 cups per day as well for that weight. On the Four Star bag it states that puppies may need 2 to 4 time the recommended amount to get all of the needed nutrients. I started to give him 4 cups of Fromm per day these past 2 days and so far everything is fine I just don't know if he is being too lazy and tired, and not sure if that is because he is not getting enough or because we had an active day yesterday. So this is where I am stuck. I don't know how much more I need to give him, whether I am giving him too much or too little. I tried calling Fromm and the rep basically read what it recommended off the bag to me. I would like help from someone who has experience with this. Possible someone who has used this line with their puppy and knows what I am talking about. Even if there is a doctor with some input on the subject I would really appreciate it. Thanks for all the help in advance.
BTW: He is eating the Surf & Turf but I want to have him on Beef Frittata
