It can be VERY stressful on growing joints and muscles for a young pup to get TOO much exercise. I would just take it slow for awhile!!

As for food, I don't recommend any purina product. Full of fillers and by-products. You will see better results with a slightly higher quality food (even if you just switched to Purina Pro Plan, which still I don't recommend, but it IS better than Puppy Chow). I feed and STRGONLY recommend Nutro Natural Choice to my pups. Since they've been on it, they have THRIVED. Beautiful soft and shiny coats, and always full of energy LOL Even Charlie's dry skin condition went away on this food! I swear by it.
Where do you get that food at?
