	Thank you!!!!! I am a new "large breed puppy" mama. I have been rotating Wellness Large Breed Puppy with Diamond Naturals Large Breed Puppy. Our vet advised me to feed a large breed puppy formula and I admit I didn't understand all the reasoning behind it so I'm grateful for this info. I'll be working my way through the rest of this thread tonight! Thank you for taking the time to compile all this information to share with us!

	Bump Glad I did something right foodwise for him as a pup! Also with larger medium sized dogs like border collies, Lab's, Goldens ect the larger kibble pieces stops them from being able to inhale food & work better in kibble dispensing toys than other smaller make foods.

	We're currently feeding Blue Buffalo puppy to our 13 week old Lab ("dh's dog") and BB Adult (both are the life protection formulas) to our 5.5 year old Sheltie ("my dog"). Before we picked this puppy food, we compared the BB LBP to the regular puppy and didn't notice much difference (except for the price). I'm considering switching to Diamond Naturals LBP because of cost and I was wondering if it would be okay to feed it to our Sheltie. To keep the cost down, I'd like to feed them the same food, but if it isn't okay I will go ahead and buy two different formulas. If it was up to me, I'd keep them on BB, but my dh just can't justify the cost (he doesn't agree with me on anything when it comes to proper nutrition for dogs...he'd rather feed "his" dog Puppy Chow then Dog Chow when the time comes) as he says he had dogs growing up and knows people now who feed it and their dogs are "just fine"! He thinks all dog food brands are the same.

	Went and looked at Diamond's website and under the LBP food, it does say "for all life stages" (but aren't all puppy formulas considered ALS?) so I assume it is okay for my adult Sheltie??? I also emailed them to be sure. The only thing I don't like is that they only have one LBP formula and it's lamb/rice).
