Amounts are recommended for an average puppy with normal activity. Remember food intake requirements vary depending on age, activity and environment, and should be adjusted accordingly.
FEEDING WEANING PUPS
Puppies start to nibble on solid foods at 3 - 4 weeks of age. Keep moistened Purina Puppy Chow (three parts kibble to one part water) available to puppies at all times until fully weaned (6 - 8 weeks of age).
FEEDING GROWING PUPS
After weaning, Purina Puppy Chow can be fed moistened or dry at the same time every day - very young puppies three times a day, older puppies twice a day. Use the feeding guidelines shown here, but remember individual needs can vary. Feed to maintain ideal body condition as shown. Slight appetite changes and occasional digestive upsets are normal in puppies. If upsets become severe or linger longer than a day or two, contact your veterinarian.
FEEDING FOR REPRODUCTION
Purina Puppy Chow provides the extra nutrition needed by reproducing females in stages of gestation and lactation. Food consumption may vary during gestation, so feed the amount needed to maintain the pregnant female’s good body condition. Food intake may double or even quadruple during lactation.
SWITCHING TO PURINA PUPPY CHOW
When switching to Purina Puppy Chow from another food, please allow 7 - 10 days for the transition. Gradually add more Purina Puppy Chow and less of the previous food to your pet's dish each day until the changeover is complete. This gradual transition will help avoid dietary upsets.
Provide adequate fresh water in a clean container daily.
For your pet’s health, see your veterinarian regularly.

Purina puppy chow complete is great. I used it for all 4 of my dogs when they were puppies. Very nourishes and helps them grow strong.
It's great! It gives my puppy the nutrition that he needs.
Puppy chow complete is perfect for your puppies first year
Every puppy I have had this is the kind we always get them and they absolutely love it.
Got my sample of Purina, Puppy Chow Complete in the mail. I set it on my coffee table and when I got back to the family room my German sheapard had already found it and was trying to unbox it for me. Needless to say she loved it and I already bought her a large bag at the store. Would deffently recommend this to other dog families
I recently tried out the Purina Puppy Chow Complete for my german sheperd puppy and she loved it! She didn't take her head out of her food bowl until it was completely clean. I will definitely consider buying Purina Puppy Chow Complete in the future. I believe Purina is a unique and flavorful brand that stands on it's own and provides the right nutrients for a healthy growing dog.
-Thank you again
