Question
can i feed my 6 month old pitbull adault food if it wont eat puppy food??He keeps eating my other pitbulls adult food. we tryed feeding him in a diffrent spot and right when we put him back out side he goes and eats the other dogs food.. what should i do?

Answer
Hi Mike, Your pitbull needs more nutrition than the other adult dogs.  If you can feed him in another area of the house, that may help.

If you must feed adult food , please add some cottage cheese (* Not the "non fat" kind - the regular one), offer 2-3 teaspoons of cottage cheese - at least 1 x per day.
For treats, buy the puppy biscuits - Innova - Wellness - Solid Gold - or Eagle Pack brands~~~

Also, make sure this kid is getting a good puppy vitamin each day.
