The pup is fed on royal canin. I wont be giving the pup any calcium any way after reading replies and further research.

so ta

Sensible decision!

Despite some people not liking feeding cereals to dogs, (me included!) Royal Canin is a pretty good food, and you shoudl be fine with that.

I actually feed my current dog on Burns cause it is a good food and plus suits my principles!!!

But obviously I cannot stipulate to the breeder that I want pup weaned on burns can I?

I dont know much about Royal Canin but her dogs all look really healthy so it must be okay.


PS Do you know of the breeder we are getting pup from??

MrsD I feed ALL ours on Royal Canin and it is one of the best foods for rearing pups on we have tried many others over the years but as far as rearing puppies this has been the most succesful by far yet. When pups go from here we ask that new owners keep their pups on the RC until they are at least 18 months old to give them the best start in life and then if they want to change food that is up to them.

The amount of golden breeders that use Royal Canin for rearing pups is a large number so it obviously works for others as well.
