What do you suggest feeding a puppy?

I am bringing my new puppy (Golden Retriever) home in a few weeks. He will be only 8 weeks old.

Would he eat the same food as an adult dog? Do you have any puppy products?
 
Flint River Ranch has one product for puppies and adult dogs. This oven-baked kibble is excellent for puppies. I wish I had known about it when my two dogs were young. Jim Flint, the founder of Flint River Ranch, does not believe in a separate formula for puppies and adult dogs. He designed a quality kibble that is nutritionally balanced for both puppies and adults. If you want a softer food, you can add a little water to moisten it. Our DryWater product is also popular with puppies. You add hot water and it makes a nutritious moist meal. We do have a senior formula for older dogs, as senior dogs require about 1/3 less fat and protein. It is Jim's belief that a lot of the "life stage" formulas are more of a marketing tool than a decision based on good nutrition. Hope that helps. Also, all our products are unconditionally guaranteed for 30 days, so you have an opportunity to try them risk-free.
