| My Coalie is 5 1/2 months and eats Solid Gold Hundchen Flocken Puppy - 4 cups a day. At what age should she start on the adult food? Should she be on WolfCub Puppy instead? Thanks in advance |

Everyone is going to tell you that it's okay to feed adult food from puppyhood as long as you are feeding a 'good' food... like Solid Gold!
We fed Luna Solid Gold but she had tummy issues so she's on Canidae All Life Stages, and she's been eating it since she was less than 4 months old. As of our last vet visit (last week!) she's was deemed strong and healthy by our vet! |

I'd switch to adult food tomorrow. Or as soon as you run out of that bag.
Luna knows what's up.  |

| Coalie is one beautiful blue pup. I am not a big fan of puppy food. You can switch at any time. |

why is puppy food so bad?
I was advised by our breeder to keep our pup on it until he's at least 12 months old |

| Sterling started to get a little fat, so we switched her when she was six months old. It was too many calories for her |
