It helps their bones and joints and keeps them from growing too fast. It's really a good idea to switch her (slowly so no GI upset) and large breed dogs do not stop growing until about 18 months old.

If you want to switch her find out the ingredients of her food now and compare it to the ingredients of adult dog food and see if there are any with the same ingredients and then there won't be much of a change.<a href="http://www.cargearusa.com/srch/srch.php?q=Land+Rover"> Amanda H</a> Yes it can be sooner (both my dogs are almost a year and I had to switch them because they were going through insane amounts of food and getting fat even though I rigorously exercise them) but if possible it’s best to feed them puppy food until 24 months because of the specific nutrients they are getting.

Puppy food will make older dogs gain too much. But, that doesn't mean stop. Ask your vet, they might suggest staying on it till 2yrs for the nutrients due to the dog being a big breed.<a href="http://www.resumeminers.com/About.htm"> hype_32s</a> I usually start switching mine at about 1yr, usually I’ll mix adult and puppy for a couple months.
