Growing stages of a young dog.

I have a 9 month old female that started out as a pretty small female in her younger days, now she seems to be growing like a weed!! Usually its hard to tell if your pup is growing when you see them everyday but this gyp I can. My ? is at what age do you figure a dog is beyond needing all the extra nutrition of a puppy chow or high octane feed. I feed dog chow to all my dogs but was thinking the way this pup is growing maybe out to get her on something with more fat and protein to help establish her full size potential, She is really turning into a nice looking dog. and I also noticed her flat feet starting to tighten up. What ya'lls thoughts on this topic?

I feed puppy feed to 1 year old. I am sure you will get all kinds of answers. Most dogs breeds grow up til 1 year so that is when I change over.
