Highlighted Reviews

— Ivory

"I started my York-Chon (Yorkshire Terrier + Bichon Frise) puppy out on regular Purina puppy chow and that was a disaster for her, terrible diarrhea and digestive upset. So I switched to Purina Pro-Plan Toy Breed Puppy Food and that cleared all her digestive troubles up very quickly. I'll be sticking..."

— Gail

"My puppy had an allergic reaction to the food. Purina does not make small breed puppy food without chicken."

Bottom Line

This food is perfect for small or toy breed puppies. It would not be a good option for any large breed dog or for small animals.
