Large breed puppies need a low fat diet to prevent rapid weight gain. Rapid growth in a large breed puppy can lead to skeletal malformations, joint stress, and reduced bone density.
This is the food our puppies eat after they are 6 weeks old. 40 Pound bags can be Purchased from us for $65+tax or you can order on Amazon.
Puppies LOVE Royale Canin. This kibble can also be used as a training treat.
If Tractor Supply is in your neighborhood- here's another great puppy food option!
Freeze dried meat pieces are a great, healthy treat option. Here is a link for the Ziwi Peak Dog food that can be used as a treat.
If you choose to feed a different large breed puppy food than Royal Canin, you'll find a small bag of this large breed puppy kibble to work great for a training or 'good boy' treat!
You can purchase a bag of freeze dried liver pieces for use a dog treats or purchase fresh liver at your local butcher- If you bake fresh liver and cut it up into chunks, you can keep in your freezer and get out when ready to use!
Liver is high in many vitamins that are good for your pup but should only be fed in moderation as excessive intake can lead to toxicity.
We've been using Nutri-Vet's Puppy-Vite supplement for the puppies we have been raising. Its the closest thing I can find to the puppy vitamins in Europe that my breeder friends there like to use. The puppies love these and are happy to 'sit' to receive their daily dose!
GlycoFlex3 is a great supplement for supporting joint growth and development. While pups are small, the bite sized chews work great, but once your pup is full grown the GlycoFlex3 tablets go down just fine and are a more economical option.
We use Proviable Probiotics for our dogs and puppies, these can be purchased on Chewy or Amazon
For many years, Plantation Dog food has been an excellent choice for breeding and hunting dogs. We've been feeding Plantation Dog food on our farm since 2018. Plantation is a consistent, dense food made from high quality ingredients. Every bag has has a great smell when you open! Our dogs will always choose Plantation kibble if given a choice. Dogs who enjoy this Plantation dog food have little waste and nice firm stool. Their bodies exhibit shiny coats and good nutrition. I do not reccomend this food for large breed puppies because the fat content is too high for them - this food is created specifically with the active, working adult dog in mind!
Plantation Ultimate is a 30/20 Chicken and Rice Formula. This is the most dense food and is the over-all choice for everyone by everyone. Available in a 50 pound bag for $65+tax. You can pick-up on the farm or get us to ship you a bag UPS.
Dog food pick-up is by appoinment only. We can also ship the food UPS or Fedex.
