Ok so i spent about an hour at a pet store that had every good food on the list but i wanted to get chicken soup... so i found it and got it, but they didnt have it for large breed so i just got regular... is that ok??? he ate it and likes it... at least the little bit mixed in w/ his regular food

i think as long as the protein % isnt too high it should be ok. many seem to think the large breed is just a gimmick and i think it mainly has a little less protein to slow the growth a bit if i remember correctly. If im wrong on this please someone correct me. glad to hear he likes it!

The large breed puppy, according to the website has 27% versus the regular puppy which has 28%...Could you ask them to order it for you?

maybe... is 1% really that big of a deal... jw... i was looking at lots of large breed foods and they went from 26 to 28

sorry to  post again but royal canin has large breed puppy on their website and its protein percent is 32... thats for large breed, isnt that alot, shouldnt 28% be ok

I've been told that large breed food isn't good for boxers. Since boxers are not a large breed. they're medium.

We feed large breed dog food and fed large breed puppy food.  Our Ziggi is 90lbs and teaki is 65-70lbs.  If they are out of the large breed we will get the regular (same brand of food) but like to stick with the large breed if possible.  I guess at the weight of our dogs I would consider them large breed.  I have read that boxers are medium breed and also saw places that consider them large breed so I don't know.  I know that out of the 4 we have had their sizes have all been different.

I think the one you got is fine and no 1% does not make that big of a difference......
