When to switch to adult dog food
Since puppies grow and develop rapidly, they have different nutritional requirements than adult dogs. A puppy needs more protein, higher calorie content as well as vitamins and minerals that support a growing skeleton. A proper and balanced diet early in your dog's life is important to building a strong and healthy foundation on which your dog can grow. However, when your dog becomes an adult their nutritional needs change and it is, therefore, necessary to change their food to an appropriate adult dog food. When you should to switch to adult dog food depends on the dog’s breed, size and development.
