ParticipantHi all,
First post here. Hoping for some advice regarding what I have been feeding my 6 month old large breed puppy (Bernese cross) since we got her at 9 weeks.
I did a lot of research beforehand and concluded that I was aiming for:
1.2% or less of calcium
Calcium to phosphorus ratio of 1:1 to 1.4:1
Calories 3500/4000 per kg
Protein of around 30%I wanted something with high quality meat ingredients and less carbs.
We settled on Akela wholeprey, mixing both there chicken and salmon recipes 50/50 (listed below)
Chicken:
Freshly Prepared Chicken 80%, Sweet Potato 15%, Minerals, Chicken Stock 1%, Potato Fibre 0.7%, Linseed, Lucerne, Lentils, Tapioca, Chickpeas, Dried Egg, Glucosamine (1140 mg/kg), MSM (1140 mg/kg), Chondroitin Sulphate (800 mg/kg), Pre-Biotic FOS, Coconut Oil, Organic Dried Carrot, Organic Dried Pumpkin, Organic Dried Spinach, Aniseed, Fenugreek, Dried Seaweed, Dried Marigold, Dried Apple, Dried Camomile, Dried Dandelion, Dried Pear, Dried Peppermint, Yucca Extract, Dried Bilberry, Burdock Root, Dried Garlic 0.004%, Organic Honey, Dried Rosehips.

Cerevisiae Cncm I-3060) 0.17mg.Salmon:

So we switched from Royal canin Maxi puppy that she was weaned onto to the Akela. Her poo, energy, coat and everything has been great.
We have noticed that when running though, she is hopping slightly on one leg.
Could anything about the food contribute to something orthopedic?
When mixed 50/50 the foods give:
1.2% calcium
0.8% phosphorus
Vit D3 around 2000iu per kg
Protein 32%
Kcals 3730 per kgAny advice greatly appreciated
