What is the best puppy food for your new arrival?
There are few things in life as joyous as the arrival of a new puppy. It can also be a little daunting too. You want to ensure you give your new arrival the very best start in life, but there are so many things to think about.
Here at Skinner’s we make it easy for you to give your new arrival the nutritional support they need as they grow. One of the most frequently asked questions we get is ‘what should I feed my puppy?’ And it’s a good one.
Balanced nutrition is vital for your new dog’s growth, their physical and mental development, and their overall wellbeing. That’s why we produce a range of complete foods specially formulated to support your puppy’s early growth and future development.
There are many articles online covering what questions to ask when buying a puppy and, quite rightly, many of them focus on diet. When it comes to what to feed a puppy, you can feel secure in the knowledge that generations of dogs have been reared on Skinner’s Puppy foods and the Skinner’s brand is a firm favourite with breeders across the UK.
There are three different foods in our range that are great for a young dog – Field & Trial Puppy,& Junior Duck & Rice and Puppy & Junior Rich in Lamb & Rice.
Field & Trial Puppy
Field & Trial Puppy is a specially formulated complete dog food. It’s ideal for weaning puppies on to from around three weeks of age and it’s also suitable for pregnant and lactating bitches to support the growth and development of her puppies, before and after birth.
For the early weaning of puppies, Field & Trial Puppy can be created into a softer form by adding a small amount of warm water to the kibble. Simply let it soak in before mashing it together using a fork. This will make it easier for your puppy to eat and the food even more appetising.
Field & Trial Puppy contains all the nutrients your puppy will need to grow into a fit, happy and healthy dog. It includes chicken meat meal – which is a highly digestible protein source – and is both wheat and gluten free.
It is formulated to provide a complete balance of vitamins and minerals to support growth and includes chicken fat – a great source of essential fatty acids – to help keep your puppy’s coat in fabulous condition.
Finally, it also contains MOS (mannanoligosaccharide), a prebiotic that helps support gut health and development.
