Which is better? I see a lot of people are feeding the NB Duck and Potato, but what about the fact that it is just a straight puppy food???? And how about Chicken Soup for the Puppy Lover's Soul? Some feed that as well, but what about it being just straight puppy?

Long story short, Baxter seems to get really pickey with his food lately and we have just started putting a little VitaGravey on it last night to entice him. He has been on Innova, and Solid Gold in the past. We made the switch to Natural Choice Large Breed puppy, but lately he hasn't been eating it unless we put some gravey/canned food in with it.

Which is better? IMHO regular puppy food or even feeding a pup adult kibble is better than large breed kibble.

They don't make a puppy food in the NB D&P, at least not in Canada. Opal eats the adult kibble, on the bag it gives instructions as to how to feed a puppy (but we feed less than they suggest).

Is Baxter teething now, that can make pups his age fussy with eating.

NB doesn't make puppy food; their foods are formulated for all life stages.

I know Zorro refused to eat Nutro when he was on it, so then we switched. But, like Black Labbies said, is he teething? The kibble might be bothering his teeth, if so. Try soaking it in a bit of water before you feed him.

I personally feed my puppies a large breed food. With so many quality ones out there, there really isn't a good reason not to.

Did he have a problem on solid gold or innova? By adding gravy (or anything) to his food, you may have created a picky eater and he's just waiting because he knows you'll add something better :) Pick the food you want to feed him and stick with it. Put it down at meal time, give him 10 min, and pick up any left after that time. If he has attention issues while eating, feed him in his crate.
