Can adult dogs eat puppy food?
If the dog is a smaller breed, like a chihuahua, you should feed it puppy food until it is about 8 or 9 months old, but if it is a larger breed, like a whippet, you should feed it puppy food until it is about 1 year and a half old. When you do make the switch between puppy food and adult food, you should mix half the amount of puppy food you normally feed it with half the amount of adult food you are going to feed it together, then put in a bit of chicken or rice to make it easier for your dogs system to get used to. If you do not introduce the switch in a subtle way (by adding chicken or rice) your dog's stomach will not get used to it and will simply give it back. (which could be a bit messy!!) Hope this helped ! :-)
