FEEDING RECOMMENDATIONS

  When purchasing a puppy from a breeder, take an interest in what the puppy eats, and stick to this diet for the first days of adaptation in your home. New foods are introduced into the puppy's diet gradually and not in one day. When giving products to which the puppy is not accustomed, they give LACTOBIFID (half an hour before a meal) at the rate of one tablet per 10 kg of the puppy's weight. The puppy needs to be taught to eat everything that he should receive, and not what he likes. Feeding puppies should be given special attention. Overfeeding leads not only to excessive fullness with the ensuing consequences, but also accelerates the growth rate of the puppy, which often causes problems with the development of the skeleton.
