Why does a puppy need special junior food – and what is the difference to adult food?
DOG'S LOVE Puppy and Junior food is specially formulated to meet the needs of growing dogs between 6 weeks and 12 months of age. It provides young dogs with sufficient protein and all the nutrients, vitamins, and minerals necessary for proper growth, strong bone structure, and healthy muscle and joint development.
When is it recommended to switch from junior to adult food?
The DOG'S LOVE Junior line is ideal for puppies starting at 6 weeks of age. Depending on the breed and the growth rate of the young dog, we recommend gradually transitioning to adult food from the 10th to 12th month of life. A gradual transition is important. We recommend transitioning the food when the young dog's growth is (almost) complete.
How does a slow transition from junior to adult food work?
A gradual change in puppy food is necessary, as the young dogs need time to get used to the new food composition. Changing the food too quickly can result in digestive problems, diarrhea, and flatulence.
Ideally, the transition takes about two to four weeks, with small amounts of adult food always being mixed into the junior food and the puppy food being gradually reduced until only the adult food is left in the young dog's bowl!
How much food does a puppy need?
The recommended feeding amount depends heavily on the puppy's individual needs. All DOG'S LOVE products include a feeding chart calculated in consultation with veterinarians on the packaging. All values given are guidelines and depend on age, activity level, breed, and individual needs. For DOG'S LOVE Junior wet food, the amount is based on the puppy's current weight. For DOG'S LOVE Junior dry food, the feeding amount is calculated based on the dog's final weight.
Do I need to soak the dry food in water before feeding?
We recommend soaking the dry food in water for approximately 15 minutes before serving. This is because the moisture is removed from the dry food during the manufacturing process. Soaked dry food is also easier to digest, as it doesn't have to be softened by stomach acid first. Dog's Love dry food doesn't swell in the stomach and is therefore easily digestible.
Our goal is to enable dogs to live a healthy, happy, and vital life through high-quality nutrition.

General questions about complete feed
Both types of food have clear advantages and disadvantages:
- Dry food: Scores points for easy storage, a long shelf life, high energy density, and usually lower costs. Due to its low moisture content, the food should ideally be soaked, or the animal should be ensured it drinks enough.
- Wet food: Provides plenty of liquid thanks to its high moisture content, which is particularly important for cats (which naturally drink little). It is often tastier, but spoils much faster in the bowl
The shelf life once opened varies greatly depending on the type of food:
Dry food (plain, clean bowl): Up to 24 hours (replace with fresh food daily)
Dry food (soaked): Maximum 2 hours
Wet food (can/pouch): 20 minutes to a maximum of 4 hours (depending on the brand/room temperature)
When looking at the ingredients list, pay attention to the following points:
- Transparent declaration: The ingredients should be precisely named (e.g., "fresh chicken" instead of just "meat and animal derivatives").
- Meat content: A high meat content is good, but the food must be balanced. A pure meat diet does not provide all vitamins and minerals.
- Additives: Avoid food with unnecessary sugar, artificial colors, or artificial flavors
Grain-free pet food contains no wheat, rye, barley, oats, corn, or rice. However, this does not mean that the food is carbohydrate-free. To shape the kibble and provide energy, manufacturers use alternative carbohydrate sources instead, such as:
- Potatoes or sweet potatoes
- Peas, lentils, or chickpeas (legumes)
- Tapioca or amaranth (pseudocereals)
Avoiding grain offers benefits, especially in specific cases:
- Diagnosed intolerances: If an animal is proven to be sensitive to grain proteins or gluten.
- Elimination diets: For the systematic investigation of food allergies.
- Species-appropriate cat feeding: Since cats are obligate carnivores, their food should naturally contain a very low proportion of carbohydrates and grain
Whether it's a bag, can, or fresh bag – unopened food requires an environment that is cool, dry, and dark:
- Temperature: Optimal temperatures are constant between 10 °C and 20 °C. Avoid places directly next to the heater, washing machine, or in direct sunlight.
- Avoid temperature fluctuations: If possible, do not store food in poorly insulated sheds. Strong temperature changes lead to condensation in the package, which allows invisible mold (mycotoxins) to grow extremely quickly.
- No contact with the floor: Do not place heavy food bags directly on the bare stone floor in the basement, but store them on an elevated surface (e.g., a pallet or shelf) to prevent the absorption of moisture from the floor.
