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.
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.

Our dog loves the shredded chicken pieces
By Cassidy on Jan 19, 2021
Our vet recommended Purina Pro, and the first bag we ever got was this kind with the shredded chicken. We went out to buy subsequent bags and they didn't have the shredded chicken, only kibble, which our dog really didn't love. We thought there was a formula change. Low and behold, this particular kind is just harder to find. Thankful that Chewy carries it!

Finally a food that works
By modz on Jan 12, 2021
We have finally found a food that my dog will eat and sits well with her. She has a sensitive tummy and is a hugely picky eater. She loves the shredded chicken bits in this food, not as big of a fan of the regular kibble bits but she'll at least eat most of it and that's all I can really ask for at this point.

Quality Puppy Food
By Chuck on Jan 12, 2021
This is the food used and recommended by the breeder.. The puppy loves the taste and is growing rapidly with a perfect coat. The breeder obviously has trust in this brand so why change.

French Bulldog Puppy loves this
By cheesecakekady24 on Oct 19, 2020
After 2 other brands, my 5 month old Frenchie has approved Purina ProPlan with Probiotics Shredded Chicken and Rice. An English Bulldog breeder I know feed this to his new litters so I decided to buy it. My french bulldog puppy cleans her bowl, her poop is not pudding-like anymore and best of all, no more mealtime stress. I wish I could feed the adult version to my Rottie but the kcal is too high for him as he gains weight easily.

great for French bulldogs
By Jess on Oct 4, 2020
I breed French bulldogs we have tried raw and freeze dried raw and super expensive foods and everything gives my dogs the runs. The prescription food they won’t eat I was havi bc to add so much to it it was horrible then someone suggested this food. I have 5 French bulldogs it has lowered their gas they are gaining back their weight skin and coat is amazing. I’ll never switch. If you don’t know frenchies are very expensive and are prone to allergies amongst other things so food can cause serious issues. Thank u for this one the shreds make them excited like they are eating people food I put a splash of cottage cheese on top and they are happy!!!

PUPPY AND KITTY LOVE IT!!
By Ares on Oct 14, 2020
10 week old Rottie loves this. But he picks all the shredded meat out & leaves the other kibble for Kitty. If I give him either the Lamb or Chicken and a rice WITHOUT the shredded , the. He ears the whole meal! I bought 3 diff Pro Plan types for him to try & I think I will go with the ones without the shredded (too bad can’t get ALL shredded). As others of said, Pro Plan def puppy AND vet (& mommy) approved!

Great puppy food
By Airstreaming on Oct 25, 2020
My vet recommended this brand of dog food for my older dog and now that we have a puppy the vet recommended it for her as well. She loves her food! It doesn’t upset her stomach and the kibble is small enough for her not to choke. I also think she enjoys the shredded bits as they are softer so makes a more interesting meal. Ingredients are great and nutritious.

Something wrong with this food
By finley on Oct 16, 2020
There is definitely something wrong with this bag of food. My dog vomited immediately after eating it and he will not eat it at all. This is a dog who loves this food so much that I can even use it as treats. I threw out the bag so I cannot go back to look at the expiration date. I will not order again.

I'm a snob but this is good stuff
By Ollie on Oct 4, 2020
I'm a snob about dog food. I will shell out so much money for the highest quality stuff. My vet recommended this brand, and it is good for my pup who has an apparent food allergy. With this, no issues. I will say, I am not a huge supporter of Purina, but for puppy food, this keeps my dog happy and works well to train her with as the bits are small and tasty.
