I have a new little puppy that will be a small dog when full grown. I would like to know what kind of dog food is best for small dogs. I have heard so many stories of supposedly big named dog foods being harmful to small dogs.
Innova and Taste of the Wild are awesome for both cats and dogs (they each have their own varieties). Check with your local feed store or specialty pet store. Anything you find in Wally world, supermarket, drug store is not going to be a healthy long life food for your puppy. And yes a puppy variety is best, just like baby food is good for a baby but as they get older they eat "big" people food, same with dogs and cats.
No corn wheat or soy. For instance science diet is loaded with corn. All can cause allergies and poor health. Innova is a good product. A little yogurt once in a while. The kind with lots of natural opheluses. That's your probiotics. No grapes or raisins. They can Kill. Watch the fats. Borax (dry) in your carpets for flea control. Narural worming. Internet information is sometimes good. A warm clean place to sleep, and a lot of love.
I use, now, Wellness Super5Mix for small dogs. I almost lost my youngest Pom to problems caused whenever he would eat Beneful healthy weight dog food. Seizures, weakness, vomiting, bloody diarrhea, and other things. I found online numerous complaints about Beneful. Since switching, he is back to his old self.
Iams gave my dogs horrid skin problems. Bil-Jac turned rancid before date to use by. Am feeding all 7 rescue Shih Tzus 'Taste of the Wild' and they are thriving!
My dogs eat Innova brand dry dog food and have since they were puppies. Their coats are shiny and they have lots of playful energy and have been very healthy. You can buy it at a pet store, a bit pricey, but well worth the cost.
