Adult Feed

[Discussing Labradoodles & Goldendoodles]

Ollie is now 8 months. He is a labradoodle and I was wondering when to switch him to adult feed. He is approximately 70lbs (way above his medium size) :)

Hi Priti,

Standard doodles typically reach full skeletal growth between 8 and 12 months. Typically, if you are feeding a "puppy formula", you switch to an adult food during that period, so you can probably switch Ollie now. Some of us never feed "puppy" foods; it's perfectly fine to start puppies on an ALS (all life stages food), so there is really no danger in switching to an ALS or adult formula at this point. 

We also have a very large, very active group here on DK called The Food Group, where we have lots of information about this and every other aspect of feeding your dog. We also have lists of recommended food and treat brands. Please join us! https://doodlekisses.com/group/thefoodgroup
