- Puppies start to nibble solid foods at 3 - 4 weeks of age. Keep moistened Pro Plan available at all times. Allow your puppy to eat at will until fully weaned (6 - 8 weeks). After weaning, Pro Plan can be fed moistened or dry. For best results, develop a regular feeding schedule such as three small meals a day for younger puppies. You can gradually reduce to one feeding in the morning and one in the evening as your puppy ages. The routine should not vary. As puppies near adulthood, their calorie needs may drop, and your puppy may begin leaving some food in the bowl. Don't misinterpret this as an indication of dislike for the food. Instead, begin offering less so your puppy doesn't overeat and stays in ideal body condition.
- Nestle Purina research indicates that avoiding overfeeding of puppies may help their development. Maintaining ideal body condition is key to encouraging proper growth in all puppies, especially large breeds. The indicated amounts are only a guideline. If your puppy becomes overweight a reduction of your puppy's daily food intake may be appropriate. You may wish to consult your veterinarian about a weight control program.
- Feeding for Reproduction: Pro Plan provides the extra nutrition needed by reproducing females in stages of gestation and lactation. Food consumption may vary during gestation, so feed the amount needed to maintain the pregnant female's ideal body condition. Food intake may double or even quadruple during lactation.
- Provide adequate fresh water in a clean container daily. For your pet's health, see your veterinarian regularly.
Making the Switch to Pro Plan: Although you'll be anxious to see the difference Pro Plan can make in your dog, please allow 7 - 10 days to ease the transition from your dog's current food. Each day, simply feed a little less of the previous food and a little more Pro Plan until you're feeding Pro Plan exclusively. This gradual transition will help avoid dietary upsets.

good stuff
By zeke21 on Oct 7, 2021
Our rescue puppy was malnourished with a dull coat and scabs all over. 3 weeks of this stuff and he’s doubled his weight. No tummy upset and firm stools. Our friends dogs aren’t kibble fans and they even like a bite of this kibble!

They changed the kibbles
By LizT on Sep 14, 2021
This is the first time we got this delivered. We got his first bag from the store. We got a larger size because our puppy loves this so much. However, it looks different from the original kibbles we received. He had mild problems with the transition but it was ok. Puppy got used to it.

BOX CRUSHED
By VeryDisappointed on Sep 3, 2021
Purina Pro Plan seems to agree with our puppy, however it looked as though it was kicked and rolled over by a truck. I honestly should have refused the shipment, but we were out of dogfood. I am on Autoship for the next shipment. I WILL REFUSE shipment if it shows up like that again and find another place to order his food.

Puppy is obsessed!
By El123 on Sep 29, 2021
I’ve been using this food since may and my puppy goes crazy when it’s meal time. My older dog is very picky and he always try to sneak some of ny puppy’s food!

Not what I selected
By CmonMan on Sep 30, 2021
Chewy did not exactly send me what I ordered. The bag was similar but not what I selected. Just send what was selected without substituting what you think I want.

My Aussie loves it
By Becky on Oct 12, 2021
My Aussie has been eating this since he was about 3 months old and he still eats it at 6 months as he is a growing boy still.

Great service

Old food, different bag
By Katelyn on Jul 26, 2021 top500Contributor
Must have received an old bag which is disappointing, the bag is completely different and the kibble is so much larger than what we normally receive with Purina Pro Plan. It’s not even the same color and has a weird yellow tint. Dogs won’t eat it and I’ve already dumped it in their food container, what a waste of money. I’ll attach a picture of the food I received vs what I’m used to receiving.

Food that is God Sent
By VBessant on Jun 17, 2021
I have two of the pickiest dogs ever. My oldest is a cockapoo Maverick (13) and my youngest is a full bloodied Cocker spaniel Bentley (1). I went through about 4 different kinds of food until I circled back to ProPlan puppy. They love it. Even my maverick who is full grown loves it and it is easier for him to chew and digest since it is for puppies. He gets a little excited about eating now. Thanks Pro Plan for showing up when you did.

New Puppy Food
By NewOwner on Jul 22, 2021
Bought this because the breeder gave us a smaller bag when we picked up our new pup. Like the smaller bite size pieces for his baby teeth. He gobbles it down and it appears to move through his digestive system well with no issues.
