http://www.dogfoodproject.com/index.php?page=menadione Thought you might be interested in this read,,,when you feedbe sure to read the labels and read the threads here  ....chose wisely what you feed,,,,when I started this many years ago , I wish I had learned all these great things i should have been doing....back then, we just grabbed the highest price dog food and thought we were doing great......

Thanks    and some vets tell you to stop feeding puppy f at 6 mos....tell them no thank you,,,,,slow growth   large breed foods  for puppies are designed to keep weight off and use raw meats and you will be ok....a lot of vets know nothing about german shepherds except to tell you how horrible their health is.....they dont see many german bred ones.....or healthy ones dont got to the vet for advice on feeding .....thats what this base of breeders that know are for...\\\\

Good Luck

I had a trainer - dog was c.7 mos then - who said puppy formulae were just a scam.  She just feeds adult, and I switched over too.  She made a point saying why have the young eat something different from mature?  Doesn't happen in real life.  And she was worried about too much growth fast, etc.  Like long-bone problems, and etc.

I have been wondering the same thing since this is only my second litter using Royal Canin. They seem to be growing a bit fast on the puppy food.
