Can puppies be fed grain free foods like wellness core? How about large breed puppies?

Puppies, like adult dogs, have no nutritional need for grains.

This is for my knowledge to share with others and also for thst day when get another dog...which might be a giant breed. ts good to know these things.

SO what do I do about large breed puppies and their requirements and grain free foods?

I would do your research on large breed dogs and their nutrition requirements - Everyone kind of errs on the side of caution when it comes to feeding a higher protein diet to a large breed. Which is good, but I am actually of the opinion that we will find out that grain free/higher protein is not the real culprit in growth problems. I know a few large breed dog breeders who wean their litters on to raw - which is the highest protein percentage you can feed, these dogs tend to actually grow slower.
