Hi, I’ve a very active 9 month old puppy who goes through fazes of eating won’t eat, I got this he loved it, but now a few weeks in he’s not eating it. To be totally honest I’d get fed up of the same thing very day. I don’t want to change his food again. But he’s a Romanian Shepard and they often become intolerant to chicken. Is there another flavour I can purchase anywhere? Lamb, Salmon. Just to give him a bit of variety? Thank you

The breeder used Purina pro plan athletic puppy and I continued my Labrador on it, he’s always loved it, is in great condition and I’ve never had any problems with it I’m changing now, only because I need some big boy food! Highly recommend

Having Bred Setter's and used Science Plan previously, I was tempted to try Pro Plan for my newest puppy. At six months, her coat has a brilliant black shine that others in the showing world look on in envy. Her body mass is good and energy levels as they should be. We never have upset tummies and her bowl is cleared within minutes. Although Pro plan is the top end of the market, cost wise, it has to be said you definitely get what you pay for. I will never try anything else, well done.....

HI TRYED A LOT FOR DOG FOOD FOR MY RIDGEBACK ALL MADE HER SICK OR UPSET TUMMY NOT GOOD. SOME SHE WOULD NOT EAT FOR DAYS. THIS IS THE BEST HER TEETH AND BREATH ARE GREAT AND HER COAT AND THIS IS THE BET PLACE TO BUY IT .

We have always had GSD's and have had lot's of trouble with their eating habits. Upset tummies, sickness, taking a long time to eat the food. We had given them the food prescribed by the breeders for each dog, but in every case we had lots of trouble with it. Then we got our Barney, the breeder told us to give him Purine Pro-plan - large puppy - athletic. He has never looked back, he loves it, no sickness, no upset tummy, he refuses to go out first thing in the morning until he has had his breakfast. He has gone from a little bundle of fur to a beautiful specimen of fun. He is a joy to behold. I was dreading the eating habits when we got him but thanks to Purina we never had a problem.

We have been using Pro Plan Puppy Large Athletic on our 21 month old Rhodesian Ridgeback since he was 6 months old as advised from our breeder. His physhic is remarkable as well as his coat has such a glossy shine to it and feels great! He just looks absolutely stunning!!
