The guidelines on Wainwright's say to feed the puppy food until 12 months old, so I guess then.

My understanding is that most puppy kibble is used up until twelve months - as Tara said above, if this is what the guidelines say for your food, I would think that this is when you would feed through to Smile

At 10 months Moo was on adult food, I don't think it matters all that much after about 6 months, but the food will have a recommendation Xx

it's mainly the protein content that is different between puppy and adult , and I think on most like wainwrights jwb F4d etc they all say around 12 months If you are sticking with the same brand then no reason to move to adult until then. For me I was coming away from Wainwrights adult and puppy for our 2 and moving to Fish4dogs so at just over 6 months old for Tommy I went adult F4D as he used to keep stealing Tilly's adult food anyway so there was not so much point in sticking with 2 separate feeds. He was absolutely fine with it .

Some people don't even feed puppy food at all.

I changed Logan over to adult at about 14 months. I had planned to change at 12 months initially Smile
