Answer:


Once your puppy's rate of growth starts to slow it is a good idea to gradually introduce adult food, for small breed puppies this would be around 8 months of age and for large breeds around12-18 months.  The larger the puppy the longer they should stay on puppy food which is designed to support more rapid body and bone growth.
