32% protein

I WOULD base the choice of getting labs drawn on how your dogs seems to feel....if he or she is acting fine i wouldnt worry.

If the protein is too high the pup could have growing issues like knuckling over in the front. like it was said before 26-28 is good for a pup. I had that happened to one of my pups and as soon as I switched to a lower level in a few weeks the problem corrected. There has also been several other members having the same issues and it was diet related.

 

In my experience, and like everything else, it depends on the dog. I once had two belly mate sisters. One would only eat Euk, and the other would only eat Diamond. The one raised on Euk had a lot of muscle, and now weighs around 75 lbs otc. The one raised on Diamond is 45 lbs otc. They both are the same height, they both are exercised regularly, but one is exactly 30 lbs heavier.

 

It's been a week, so far she hasn't shown any signs of knuckling over, but at the same time as soon as this bag is done (could take a while its a fifteen pounder) im going to switch to a lower protein just in case.

 

I would probably go ahead and get the new food and start mixing it so you cross her over gradually.

 

Good iidea... It'll still be TOTW just the pacific stream flavor.

 

I have started mixing mine with a lower protien food. Haven't seen any knuckling over problems.
