Great Danes require more careful feeding than other dogs.

Should you feed you Great Dane puppy regular puppy food? What about puppy food designed for large breeds?

The consensus say no.
 Puppy foods contain a higher amount of calcium than foods for grown dogs. Great Danes being prone to growth disorders involving their bones, such as hip dysplasia, panosteitis, and wobblers syndrome are believed to do better on a diet not exceeding 20-25% protein. Even as puppies.

Most puppy foods contain protein and fat levels way above what is safe for a Great Dane Puppy and feeding them can have dire consequences.

When feeding a Great Dane Puppy, a high quality, premium and natural dog food, or a raw food diet are your best choices. Some of the better brands include Wellness Dog Food, Innova and Wysong.

Do stay away from pet food in the grocery store. While it may seem less expensive at first glance, the grocery store pet foods are of low quality with a high percentage of fillers.

Raw food is a fantastic Great Dane Puppy Food. Your dog will receive prime fresh nutritious meat with bone which will help keep teeth and gums in optimal condition along with the psychological benefits of eating and chewing on bone.   If preparing raw food for your dog seem like a daunting task, it is very easy, and so rewarding, once you have gotten the basics.  In the meantime, you can begin by purchasing already prepared raw foods for dogs.
