Answer
Boston Terrier Follow-up ;
How is your pup doing now?  

Hi Janette,  I am not a FAN of the Science Diet brand - poor ingredients...
How about slowly adding some Innova PUPPY or Solid Gold puppy food to the Science diet.
Just give her 1/4 cup a day of the Science diet and then 1/4  of a better food.
Other good brands are:
Wellness Puppy ; Evangers ; Canadae; 4 Health ; and Merrick ,  MOST can be found at a pet store or Farm and Feed store.

Make sure you add a little water to the dry food.

Please also get your little Boston onto 1/2 of a NuVET Wafer per day-
MOST of my clients take the NuVET vitamin supplement for a lifetime.
HELPS pups with proper growth and also digestion of foods and nutrients...
Helps the bones to grow strong and keep away the injuries.
Bostons are prone to leg injuries.



PLEASE call in your First order of NuVET ---
