FAQs
At what age should I switch my puppy off this food?
This food is formulated for the growth stage. Consult your vet around 10-12 months of age (or older for giant breeds) to transition to an adult-specific sensitive digestion formula.
Can I feed this to my adult dog if they have sensitive digestion?
While it is technically safe, it is formulated with higher calorie and mineral content for puppies. It is better to use an adult-specific sensitive formula to avoid over-nutrition.
Does this food contain corn or wheat?
The primary carbohydrate source in this recipe is white rice, which is selected for its high digestibility compared to other grains.
How do I store the 12kg bag to keep it fresh?
Keep the bag in a cool, dark location. If possible, transfer the kibble to an airtight food storage container to prevent oxidation of the omega oils.
Are the prebiotics in this food effective?
Yes, the combination of FOS and MOS is scientifically recognized for helping maintain a healthy balance of beneficial gut bacteria in puppies.
Troubleshooting
Puppy experiences loose stools during transition
Slow down the transition process by keeping the puppy on the previous food for a longer period before increasing the amount of Eukanuba.
Puppy refuses to eat the kibble
Try slightly moistening the kibble with warm water to release the aroma, or ensure the bowl is cleaned of any old residue.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your puppy receives the full benefits of this diet, follow a consistent feeding schedule and provide constant access to fresh water. Store the 12kg bag in a cool, dry place and ensure it is sealed tightly between uses to preserve the integrity of the essential fatty acids. If your puppy has a known allergy to poultry, consult a veterinarian before switching, as this formula is protein-specific. Always monitor your puppy's weight and adjust portions based on age and activity level rather than leaving food out indefinitely (free-feeding).
