I am getting a Dane puppy soon and will either feed Canidae, Fromm, Innova, Solid Gold or another super premium food. Nutro is not a premium food, but alot of dogs do great on it. IMO - you can get better foods than Nutro that are much healthier and have a better variety of meat in them. I see that Natural Choice for Puppies has one type of meat - chicken. I like to see a variety. It is so much healthier for your dog. There are many reasons as to why more than one source of meat is better, if you want to know I can post it.

I would start off with a super premium food that you can fit into your budget. Maybe even get some samples of different foods and see what the pup likes. Not every dog is going to eat a high quality food, just like not every dog is going to eat a lower quality food.

Good luck!
