Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: Is this food complete for puppies or only a topper?
Ans: It’s designed to work as a complete puppy meal when fed as directed. You can also use it as a topper, just reduce the base food portion to avoid overfeeding.
Q2: How do I rehydrate it correctly?
Ans: Add warm (not hot) water at about a 1:1 to 1.5:1 ratio, stir, and let sit 2-3 minutes. The texture should soften before serving.
Q3: How many meals per day should I feed my puppy?
Ans: Puppies under 4 months typically do best with 2-3 smaller meals daily. After 4 months, most puppies can transition to 1-2 meals based on appetite and routine.
Q4: When should I switch to adult food?
Ans: Transition when your puppy reaches maturity for their breed size: small (around 9 months), medium (around 12 months), and large/XL (up to 24 months). Switch gradually over 7-10 days.
Q5: Can picky puppies eat this easily?
Ans: Many picky puppies prefer the aroma and softer texture after rehydration. Start by mixing a small amount into their current food, then increase gradually as acceptance improves.
Q6: Is it suitable for sensitive stomachs?
Ans: It may work well for many sensitive puppies because it’s nutrient-dense and rehydrated. Introduce slowly over 7-10 days and monitor stool quality and appetite during the change.
Q7: How should I store the bag after opening?
Ans: Reseal tightly and store in a cool, dry place away from humidity. For longer freshness, you can refrigerate or freeze after opening, especially in warm climates.
Q8: What if my puppy gets loose stools during transition?
Ans: Slow the transition, reduce the portion slightly, and ensure full rehydration. If diarrhea lasts more than 48 hours, or there’s vomiting/lethargy, stop feeding and contact your vet.
