Title: Puppy or Junior !?
Post by: Henshallboys on May 10, 2008, 06:25:29 PM

Bramble & Beri are 8 months this month......is it ok to change from James Wellbeloved Puppy to Junior ?  I am a bit confused as no other food seems to have junior they go straight to Adult   :luv:

I would just put them straight onto the adult variety tbh. I change mine from puppy to adult food at around 5 and a half to 6 months, Arden Grange doesn't have a junior variety but even if they did I'd still go straight to the adult stuff.

Our vet said to change to adult at 9 months but I'm sure I read on here that you can change them as soon as they have lost all of their puppy teeth.

I am glad that someone else has asked this question.  OH and I were only debating over the weekend what should be do with Sweep's food - she is 8 months.  She is quite a fussy eater and seems to have gone off JWB puppy pouches and the puppy lamb & chicken kibble. 

We tried her on the duck flavour kibble which she seemed to like better but we can only find the adult version locally - so she has been eating that.  We were a bit worried that it was too soon to move her over to adult food but from what you are saying it is ok
