First off, HI EVERYONE! I just brought baby Lola home yesterday so I'm sure I'll be on here lots picking everyone's brainssmile

Now, about this food thing... I read some posts about not feeding puppy food because there's too much fat/protein and that causes growth spurts. I am feeding Lola Eagle Pack Controlled Growth Giant Breed Puppy, so it has lower levels of fat and protein (12% and 23% respectively).

Is that ok? Does anyone have any experience with this food? Thanks!happy dance

The protein thing is a myth. If you dont' feed enough protein she'll stop growing. You need a food that has appropriate calcium/phosphorus levels... 1.5% calcium, .9% phosphorus. Most premium large breed puppy foods are appropriate, and you'll want to keep her on them until at least 18 mos.
