Eric J - Thanks for your reply. I see more and more owners backing away from puppy chow and I was wondering why, you spelled it out nicely! I have actually been feeding Hammer adult Nutro because he won't eat the puppy food, so I guess that I'll just keep him on that for good then.

We feed our boxers Diamond Dog Food... This stuff is amazing.. If you read the ingredients and compare them with Eukanuba there almost identical.. Our male has really begun to fill out with this food... I would highly recommend this stuff...

We are feeding Cleo Nutro Max puppy food. She seemed to be doing really good on it until yesterday. Now, seems that her stool is very loose. I can't remember the name of what she was being fed before we got her, but I brought some of it home and was mixing it in with the Nutro. We've only had her home for a little over a week. I'm just wondering if the loose stool is from changing her food and if I should give it a few more days or should maybe see about changing her food???????!!!!

Puppy Feeding

I would give it a few more days. Emma our 11.5 week old started off on Eukanuba andhated it. So we switched her to Nutro Natrual Choice Puppy Lamb and Rice b/c that it what our Tigger 3.5 yrs. old boxer ate. Noe Emma is doing well and eating the cat's food as well as Tigger's adult Nutro Natrual Choice Lamb and Rice. When we switched her over she had loose stool for about a week or so. Don't give up. Your baby it adorable by the way. :cool:

Responding to What to feed your puppy

I have a 1 year old brindle boxer, Alexis. The breeder that I bought Alexis from had her dogs on Diamond. I can relate to the pooing frequently! The breeder did give me a small bag to bring home with Alexis, once home I found that by mixing the diamond (which is a co-op brand from large feed store) with the Iams brand she did wonderful, and made it allot easier to get her off of diamond.She loves it. Diamond is a really rich dog food that is why your ending up with the pooing often. It is usually formulated toward older dogs for their coat. I bought the yellow bag of iams made for large breed (mini chunks) untill she was old enough to eat the large chunks. Other wise they have a tendance of trying to eat it really fast. My next door neighbor is our vet as well and recommends it. Most people don't know this but eukanuba is made by the Iams company or visa versa. My boxer hated eukanuba and would not take to it at all. I tried a small trial bag. She would not touch it with a ten foot pole. Although my friends dog loved it. Now that Alexis is a year old I have switched to the Green bag of iams made for large breed. I also in the mornings I mix a 1/2 can of the soft iams chicken & rice with a cup of the dry. then in the evenings just dry. She goes once in the mornings and once in the evenings. I hope this is of some help to you. Good Luck with your new baby.
