Food Switchover

[noellesmommy]

Noelle is about 10 months old now and I was thinking yesterday while remembering I had to buy her some more food that she should be starting to head to adult food real soon.

When would be the best time to start gradually switching her to adult food?  I just bought a new bag of food today and it should last her about 2 months.  Should I start mixing in now or wait a month?

When do most people switch their dogs from puppy to adult food?  Does it have to be at a year or could it wait for a while?  What would be best?

i did it around 12 mos with snowball, and 10/11 mos with snoop b/c he was eating her food anyway. get low on this bag and start with the adult. she may switch herself in aday or two as mine did and then youre mixing for nothing. and waste less too. mine would spit the puppy food out and eat the adult food.
