Make sure to provide plenty of fresh water. When transitioning to this food, do it gradually over 7 - 10 days by mixing it with your puppy's old food to avoid digestive issues. Store the food in a cool, dry place and keep the bag tightly closed to maintain freshness. Do not feed this product to adult or mature adult dogs as it is specifically formulated for large breed puppies.
