NUTRO^® NATURAL CHOICE^® Dog Food

We include real chicken as our #1 ingredient, as well as other wholesome natural ingredients, such as whole brown rice and sunflower oil, to please even the most selective palates, guaranteed.

Small Breed Puppies have a high requirement for energy and nutrients from food in order to support their rapid growth rate. Our natural SMART START™ Formula with DHA and balanced minerals supports the development of a puppy's growing brain.

Our puppy product has been precisely formulated with targeted levels of protein and fat to keep up with the higher energy needs of a small breed puppy.

Small breed puppies can have sensitive digestive tracts, yet they need to gain optimal nutrition from the food they consume. Our formula includes wholesome oatmeal, an all-natural, high in fiber carbohydrate that's easy on the stomach to help regulate the digestive system.

Small dogs not only spend the majority of their time indoors, but are also groomed frequently. This lifestyle lends itself to skin sensitivity. Our patented blend of Linoleic Acid & Zinc provides a moisture barrier for skin & coat nourishment.

Note: These are the recommended feeding ranges for puppies. These guidelines should be adjusted as needed to obtain optimum weight.

Puppies: Feed the suggested amount in three meals per day until 6 months of age, then twice daily until 12 months.

Adult Dogs: Feed at least 80% of the amount shown for puppies 29-52 weeks of age.
