The Bil-Jac Large Breed Puppy Chicken Recipe Dry Dog Food is designed to meet your large breed puppy’s unique needs so he starts life out on the right paw. Fresh chicken is the first ingredient for paw-some, high-quality protein to help your pup build strong, lean muscles. Then, the food is slow cooked and gently dried to help protect key nutrients and make it extra tasty. Glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate help to support your furbaby’s joints. Naturally sourced omega-3 and -6 fatty acids nourish your pup’s skin and coat health, while probiotics support digestive and immune health. This food delivers complete, balanced nutrition for fully grown large breed puppies, so you can give your best friend the nutrition he needs.
We recommend feeding Bil-Jac Large Breed Puppy on a scheduled and controlled basis. For weaning puppies (3 - 4 weeks) moisten Bil-Jac Large Breed Puppy with warm water. After weaning and up to 6 months of age, feed puppies three times daily. After 6 months until your puppy reaches maturity, feed twice daily. Use the feeding chart as a starting point. The proper amount to feed will vary according to the age, environment and activity of your puppy. Make feeding adjustments to maintain proper weight and condition. Fresh water should be kept available at all times. For your pet's health, see your veterinarian regularly. Store this bag in a cool, dry place.
Transition Instructions
While no transition is required, it is important to feed according to recommendations on the bag.
The folks at Bil-Jac don't rush when it comes to making high-quality food for your dog. No, they believe healthy food takes time. From their carefully selected ingredients to their slow-cooked and gently dried recipes, these animal-lovers take their time to create a dog food that puts nutrition first. Bil-Jac looks so different because it is so different—and your dog will feel it, too.
Small Batches, Cooked Slowly and Gently
Bil-Jac builds their recipes on high-quality, fresh ingredients – like the 25 pounds of fresh chicken they use to make a 30 pound bag of Bil-Jac Adult Select. Their unique Nutri-Lock cooking method is like no other and allows them to use so much more fresh chicken, without using high-temperatures and high pressure. Instead they craft meals like you would in your own kitchen, for outstanding nutrition and mouth-watering taste.
From the Bowl to the Yard
Not only will your dog's taste buds thank you, but so will his tummy—and so will your lawn. When you feed your pet a quality, nutrient-rich meal, his digestive system will thrive just the way it should. And, when your dog's stomach is happy, so are you.
Take the Bil-Jac Challenge
While you care about how nutritious your dog's food is, he craves another important thing: food he can't wait to eat.. And your pal will love the tail-wagging, delicious taste of fresh chicken in every bite of Bil-Jac. Don't believe us? Try the Two-Bowl Challenge. Place a small amount of your regular kibble in one bowl and Bil-Jac kibble in another - see which bowl your best friend empties first!
The Bil-Jac Tip-To-Tail Guarantee
After 70 years of cooking nutritious meals for dogs, the people at Bil-Jac stand by every bag they make. They don't care about being the biggest manufacturer of pet food—instead, their goal is to provide the absolute best nutrition for dogs and keep tails wagging. They truly believe in their food, and they believe you'll see a difference in how your dog looks and feels after a few weeks eating Bil-Jac.
About Bil-Jac
After returning home from serving in World War II, brothers Bill and Jack Kelly began their mission to create a better pet food in 1947. They developed a completely new way to take large amounts of fresh chicken, cook it slowly, and then vacuum dry it to remove the moisture while keeping its powerful nutritional value. Today, they continue their commitment to nutrition with their ever-growing assortment of foods and treats.
This variety contains approximately 1.15% Calcium and 0.94% Phosphorus content on an as fed basis, which is equivalent to a calcium to phosphorus ratio of 1.22 : 1.
Are the feeding instructions based on the current weight of the puppy?

The feeding recommendations are based upon the current weight of the puppy. These general guidelines may be adjusted to the needs of the individual pet.
What age is a dog no longer a puppy
Answer by • Sep 11, 2020
Puppies mature into adults at different times depending on their breed. This means that a large dog breed will mature into an adult at about 15-24 months, while smaller breeds will be puppies for only 9-12 months.
What is the difference between this one and puppy select? When is a good recommended time to switch over from puppy select to this?
Answer by • Sep 10, 2018
Puppy food is recommended for the first year of a dog's life.
We adopted an 8 week old GSD/pit bull, and were dealing with soft serve at best. She only had solid stool for chicken and rice, no matter what puppy food we switched to until BilJac. She's completely off the chicken and rice now, and has had no more issues. The only downside is the cat tries to steal the kibbles, and won't leave her alone when she eats.
Some things to keep in mind- *These are not the hard crunchy kibble you are used to. These are a crumbly, almost freeze-dried texture. *"By-products" are listed in the ingredients. Organ meats are very nutritious, but are still considered by-products when listing ingredients. *Watch your pup's weight while feeding this food, and adjust accordingly. If I remember correctly, weight gain is pretty common with BilJac.
Happy pooping!

excellent!
I originally was going to get a different brand that was recommended for for my pit because he couldn’t keep weight on him like at all we’d switch brands too many times for my liking and ironically a brand rep was in the store although I thought he was just trying to sell me stuff he was right and even my cockapoo loves it and she’s a picky eater I recommend this to everyone now

Good Choice
After trying a couple other brands, one my lab mix refused to eat after 2 bags and one that gave him gas and runny stools, we found Bil-Jac. We are now on our 4th bag, his stool was back to normal almost immediately and so far he seems to enjoy it. It does have an odd shape and strong smell, but otherwise we haven't had any issues. I also like the company's history with recalls, very good option for puppies!

This is the one!
Finally! My super-finicky 10-month-old was originally eating Blue, got tired of it, went to Wellness, which was not a winner, tried Blue Wilderness, tried toppers, tried different canned foods, tried everything I could think of and nothing persuaded her to eat. I'm almost afraid to leave this review because I don't want to jinx it, but this food? Rosalie approves! Even one of the cats will take a few bites when he gets the chance! Bil-Jac is a definite winner.

dog loves this
My mini bernedoodle LOVES this. Normally he eats a few bites of dog food throughout the day but he comes running every time the feeder starts now.

Highly Recommend
After several years working in vet med, even under a canine nutritionist for a while, this food has done the best by my dogs. I have sighthounds- keeping weight on them is tricky sometimes, and Bil-Jac does the trick. I feel like I've tried almost everything and this is what I will recommend from here on out.

Best ever food
We've always fed bil-jac we used to use the original recipe but can no longer find it anywhere not even online to be shipped to my home it was truly the best food had to keep it cold but that was never a problem. This dry version isn't bad and has more convenient use because no refrigerator is needed we had Shar-peis so bil-jac is one of the few soy free foods they can eat. I just kept feeding all my dogs that because of habit have never had coat issues or stomach problems nothing I have always gotten compliments on my dogs coats and eyes things most people don't notice about others dogs. First thing they see about mine that soy in the other foods is what makes dogs sick. I've never seen any dog out looking for soy to eat on there own it's not something that belongs in a diet for a carnivore. They need meats a little vegetables is OK but soy is not. It changes hormones in humans certainly not feeding that to my dog and have always found food without it for my cats too.

Not for my pup
I have a Boxer Shepherd cross who at first ate the new food, but after a week stopped eating it all together. She also developed a possible allergic reaction to the new food after eating it for about 2-3 days. She developed a red sore (from licking) on the side of her front foot. Also, she likes her food with a little water, but when you add water to this food it dissolves to mush...not very appetizing for the pup.
