Give your puppy the nutritional building blocks he needs for healthy growth and development with Purina PRO PLAN Healthy Start. Each high quality dry food features outstanding nutrition specifically designed for puppies and high-quality chicken pieces as the #1 ingredient.

Purina PRO PLAN® Healthy Start PUPPY products contain colostrum, which helps support puppies' immune response up to 50% more. Colostrum also helps to optimise the balance of the gut microflora, helping minimise the incidence of loose stools that is so common during puppyhood.
Purina PRO PLAN® Healthy Start contains adjusted protein and fat levels to promote healthy growth and long-term health, as well as nutrients that support healthy joints.

Purina PRO PLAN Healthy Start LARGE ROBUST PUPPY is suitable for large robust breed puppies (more than 25 kg adult weight). This dry puppy food contains vitamin D, minerals and specific levels of omega-3 fatty acids (0.3%) to help support healthy teeth and gums. It is rich in high quality chicken and provides optimal nutrition for your large puppy's growth up to 18-24 months of age, when they become fully grown.

Discover the benefits HEALTHY START products can make to your puppy's health and wellbeing. 
Also suitable for gestating / lactating bitches.
If you want to give your dog some variety, explore the different flavours of PRO PLAN recipes with added benefits - for example, Lamb in Sensitive Digestion or Salmon in Sensitive Skin products. 

All PRO PLAN® products are formulated to make the most of high-quality ingredients, delivering efficient nutrient absorption and targeted benefits at every stage of life. In fact, we are so sure your pet will love it, that we are offering the chance to try PRO PLAN® risk free, with 100% money back guarantee*.

Feeding guide

See table for recommended daily feeding amounts. These amounts are guidelines only. Ensure your puppy and mother maintain a lean body condition by adjusting the daily amounts according to your dog’s activity level, physical condition and individual needs. During weaning, introduce solid food gradually. Clean, fresh water should be available at all times. To monitor your dog’s health, consult a vet regularly.

Happy dog
4/5

I also worried about introducing a née food brand to my dog but if I'm honest I shouldn't of been. She happily ate her food and there wasn't any signs of digestion problems etc. Her coat is lovely and shiny and I do believe it's from the Purina Pro. Happy god = Happy owners!

Happy dog, happy human
4/5

What can I say, it’s dog food. I haven’t personally tried it but my dog has wolfed it all down. He seems happy (he smiled for the photo). The food contains a good level of meat and claims to have a good amount of nutrients. My dog is happy and in good health so I can’t really fault it.
