EAGLE PACK Large and Giant Breed Puppy 15kg
23% Protein / 12% Fat
Proven to nutritionally control the structural growth for that critical period from weaning to 18 months.
Ours is the only brand test-fed on eight litters of Great Dane puppies (1990). There were no reported problems. We tested again in 2002; again no problems.
Some brands say 36% protein is a correct level. Other research states 0.8% calcium is correct. That research was performed 30 years ago. Test formula ingredients included bloodmeal and soy, ingredients unlike any used today in Super Premium formulas. Still, 25% of the dogs were determined to be lame.
So, have you been told not to feed a "Puppy" formula? Those references are to traditional puppy formulas with 26-32% protein and 15-20% fat; with that, we agree.
