Dogs come in all shapes and sizes – and so does dog food. So it’s important you pick the right food for your dog, and that’s where this quick nutritional guide can help.
The right stuff
Every dog is unique. Each has its own special character, likes, dislikes and needs. And just like humans, dogs have specific nutritional requirements too. A lot can depend on breed, age, lifestyle and condition - so a growing, energetic puppy needs a different balance in its diet than a less active senior dog.
Most manufactured pet food brands now offer an increasing range of special recipes designed to meet the specific needs of dogs throughout their lives. This means you can be sure you're getting the balance right, which will keep your dog healthy - and you happy.
There are a number of specific articles on this site with feeding advice for dogs by life stage and lifestyle. But this quick nutritional guide is designed to highlight particular needs, and how a specially formulated diet can help. You'll also discover which Purina brands offer particular food formulas.
