But I would like to hear from you all on your "Preferred Dog/Puppy Food" and why?
Let's discuss....
We feed our female Taste of the Wild Pacific Stream Salmon Puppy Food and will switch her over soon the the adult version of the same.

We like salmon as the first ingredient and it helps her coat look great. The food has good reviews, she likes it and ingredients overall seem healthy to us (and she is healthy). Also it is easy to find as our preferred pet supply store stocks it.

The male adult was eating Fromm’s, which is also very good, but he has an issue with crystals in his urine and is now on prescribed food from Royal Canin.

For the most part, I wouldn’t overthink it. There are some who swear by raw diets and some (like us) that prefer kibble.

Also, you didn’t ask, but we have fixed feeding times with no grazing throughout the day. We started with 4x/day as puppies, then 3x, then 2x, then 1x around the time they reach a year old. The males we’ve had devour everything immediately. The females sometimes eat everything, sometimes don’t. We throw away what they don’t eat within 15 minutes of putting it out.
