Diesel what diet did your breeder suggest??

It is very well knowm amongst the Lab folk regarding Euk & growing but many vets will sell the product or pet stockists will promote a product that whilst good isnt suitable for all breeds.

The only time i have known some lab breeders to use it is if the grwoth plates are slow to open & they will feed it on a very monitored basis but otherwise they avoid .

The lab breeders i now all use advance(i dont use this product as it doesnt suit my breed) .

Im not aware of many that use the royal canin product.

I would suggest talikng with your breeder,they should be able to assist you in all your questions if they havent covered in there puppy packs.

My Breeder initially supplied me with a Euk starter pack so thats what i have been feeding him,i assumed that Euk is a quality product,but of course their is always a "better" product than the last...

Thankyou to everyone for your input it is greatly appreciated and valued as a first time Dog Owner(i waited 15 yrs to get this dog!)

Settrlvr thx for your concern i will look into using Advance and R.C..I think that i might stick with feeding him a well balanced dry food and supplementing his diet once or twice a week with some raw meaty bones(lamb necks etc) i think this would be an adequate diet??

Cheers

Many Lab breeders actually avoid Euk as it has caused major growth issues .

I have no issues with the product as we use it BUT do have friends who are breeders of Labs & its the one product they do avoid especially during the growing stage

So your friends that avoid Euk during the growing stage,what is their preferred choice for their pups??

My boy is just over 5 months old and is 24kg...

Just as i thought,

Thx for quick reply so many ppl tell me different things he is my first pup and i dont want to stuff up..

Well this is my first post since joining up so here goes....

My Purebred black lab is 5months old,i currently feed him a diet of Eukanuba biscuits,fresh lamb,and chicken necks.

My Q is should i need to give him calcium powder with his meat or is my boy getting his calcium reqiurments from Eukanuba??

I have been told that he should be o.k because he is not on a meat only diet...

Any advice App'

Cheers Andrew..

P.S if he does reqiure C.P when is a good age to start supplment??
