Puppies less than eight weeks of age should be fed PEDIGREE® PUPPY dry food that has been soaked in warm water (not boiling). All diet changes must be made gradually, so when you start feeding your puppy PEDIGREE® PUPPY, increase quantities progressively during a period of five days. At the end of the puppy stage, it is best to gradually introduce PEDIGREE® ADULT to your dog’s diet.
A bowl of fresh water should be nearby and available at all times. It is strongly advised NOT to feed Pedigree in conjunction with any other dog food. You may mix this product with Pedigree pouches available in beef and chicken varieties.
