2-Phase Concept:
In the first months of life, dogs of small, mid-sized, and large breeds require puppy food with a high protein content to ensure the optimum development of organs, muscles, tendons and joints.
For large breeds, the protein content in the feed can be lowered from the 6th month because from this time on they grow slower than smaller breeds. For this reason, the entire growth period for large breeds is also considerably longer.
For this reason, MERA has developed two different junior products.
MERA Junior 1 for small to mid-sized breeds to the end of the growth period and for large breeds to the end of the 5th month.
MERA Junior 2 for large breeds from 6 months of age to the end of the growth period.

Caution with overfeeding and supplements:
Dog owners often think that a dog cannot be overfed, and metabolises all of the energy that it takes in and uses it for growth. However, this is completely false: Overfeeding in particular leads to excessive energy intake and the development of fatty tissue and excess weight, even in puppies. As the fat builds up, the muscles break down, which affects the sensitive skeleton of the dog. Think about and calculate the additional energy you are providing, particularly in treats. If you like to reward your dog with lots of treats, reduce its daily food ratio accordingly. You can reward your dog with the MERA PURE Goody Snacks without hesitation since they are adapted to the energy-reduced recipes of Mera's PURE products.
Caution when adding food supplements:
It is definitely not a case of the more, the merrier. On the contrary, the addition of food supplements such as minerals (calcium, phosphor, and the like) can also cause damage. Mera's puppy food contains ideal proportions of all minerals and vitamins. Too much phosphor, for example, can prevent the absorption of calcium, and too much calcium can cause abnormal bone development. If you still wish to use supplements, we recommend that you consult your vet.
