Enhanced Joint Support: Enriched with Glucosamine and Chondroitin to support healthy joint cartilage development and protect the joints of these future heavy dogs who are highly prone to joint stress and conditions like hip and elbow dysplasia .

Immune System Support: Fortified with essential vitamins, minerals, and natural antioxidants to help support a strong and robust immune system during the vulnerable puppy stage .
Healthy Skin & Coat: Contains Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids (2.2% and 0.5% respectively) to help promote healthy skin and a shiny, lustrous coat .

Important Tips for Giant Breed Puppies

Extended Growth Period: Giant breed puppies take significantly longer to reach full maturity (18-24 months). They should remain on a high-quality giant breed puppy formula until they are at least 18 months old, and sometimes up to 24 months, before transitioning to an adult giant breed formula .
Monitor Growth Closely: Regularly monitor your puppy's weight and body condition. Giant breed puppies should be kept lean to avoid excess stress on developing joints. You should be able to feel their ribs easily without a thick layer of fat .
Avoid Overfeeding: Overfeeding and rapid growth are among the biggest health risks for giant breed puppies. Follow feeding guidelines carefully and consult your veterinarian .
Transitioning Food: When introducing your puppy to Wags Giant Breed Puppy food, do so gradually over 7-10 days by mixing increasing amounts of the new food with the old food to prevent digestive upset .
Storage: Store the food in a cool, dry place. After opening, reseal the package tightly or transfer to an airtight container to maintain freshness .
