I agree as I think we are all guilty of overdoing at some point. Years ago I fed Pro Plan Lite to all my dogs as they loved it, the puppies always ate the same thing and I never had a growth problem.
I now feed a raw diet but do have to make adjustment for some of the puppies as owners would prefer to feed a good quality kibble (some add a portion of raw to it). My question is what do other breeder feel about Royal Canin Puppy Growth? I myself feed Innova when feeding kibble.
