I just got a 10 week old english puppy that was on puppy chow.I cant decide what to put him on since puppy chow is bad.I also read somewhere that they dont grow as thick and have big heads not being on puppy chow.His dad is CHAMPION CHEROKEE LEGEND Rock.Maybe i can get a pic for you all soon

From the reports of puppy owners here Fromm makes an excellent puppy food.
Welcome to EBN. Glad you joined but you should know... WE LOVE PICTURES!!!!!!!!!! LOL :D

Thanks.I thought there would be more replys lol

Thick and big heads is genetics-- not dog food. I would also recommend Fromm puppy until 3-6 months and the ALS (all life stages) food thereafter.

I can only give you what worked for Jake. He was taken off puppy chow at 8 weeks and put on an all stages food from then til now. Good luck!

I can also mention on what has worked wonders for Bruno and that is a RAW or BARF diet. Solid protein keeps him healthy, and muscular.

I tried the all life stages when Chaos came home at 8 weeks. He lost weight so the vet said put him on puppy food. I ordered the Fomm puppy gold and it has been fantastic!!!! He is now 7 months so next order I will put him on the all life stages and see how it does now that he is older. Every bully is different, its all trial and error....and a stressful time for the new bully momma

Hi and welcome to the site. My Wilson was on science diet when we got him at 8 weeks old I transitioned him to Wellness for Puppies and he had loose stools, like soft serve soft. I switched him to Blue Buffalo and that's been good. We're in the process of getiing him on the adult version now as he's 6 months now.

I read a lot here that Fromm is excellent food.

On another note, I have a cousin named Chris Smith that lives in So. Calif. That not you is it?

 

[Luvin My Bullie]

ha! I didnt mean it that way, lol!! Thats just habit , I say mam to a 15 yr old....just a figure of speech :hahaha:

 

[karenben]

totally agree with desertskybulldogs the size and shape of your pup is determined by his genetics of course him being on the best quality food will do wonders for his growth but you dont want him growing too fast and getting overweight or there will be problems later find a food that suits and keep him on it ,karen
