Puppy Food

What is the best puppy food for good health and maximum growth potential...

I have used diamond puppy food before and it has worked well...just wondering what others recommend? thanks

Puppy Chow

Valu-Pak 28/20,run it thru a blender and store in icecream bucket. At feed time, I feed 3 times a day, scoop out what you need, add goat milk and watch em enjoy.
Pups have plenty of energy,alert, good bone ,and shiny coats.

Valu Pak 28/20 Free is the best I've used, although I dont go through the trouble of blending it and all that. just let milk sit with it in a bowl when they're real little then transition em over to solid food.

For the price its hard to beat the Valu Pak free line for anything, the 28/20 is 26.50 for a 50 lb sack. I use the 26/18 in the winter for 24.50 and the 22/12 for 23.50 in the summer for all my dogs. no corn, soy, wheat or gluten and two different meats as the main ingredients

I heard Blue puppy fod was real good and tried it on this last litter and the pups ate it very good and looked good at all times. Good solid stool and hair looked great. Little pricy but I feel it does help with the loose stool issue.

I've raised several litter of pups but the heartiest, slickest ones, biggest have been raised on pro plan sport.

It's in a different league than the other foods for pups and I have fed just about all of the top ones.

I can set a bowl of valupak and a bowl of puppy chow in front of my pups and they will choose the valu pak and do good on it. Since years ago when Purina took the powdered milk off the puppy chow it doesn't seem to be as good.

If I was using purina I would use the pro plan puppy food instead of the regular purina puppy food.
