Food change
Dry Dog Food
We recommend an immediate change of dry dog food without a transitional phase. Due to the differences in digestibility, mixing PLATINUM Dry Food with another dry food is not advisable.
Please note the following points when feeding:
- Serve dry or slightly moistened with water.
- Do not let the food soak for a long time, serve immediately.
- Always provide your dog with fresh water.
- Initially please feed using the lower recommended amount, only serve more if required.
Wet Dog Food
The changeover from conventional wet food to Menu can be made immediately, without any transitional phase. If your dog has a very sensitive stomach, you can give it the Menu over a period of 1-2 days, introducing it slowly until the animal has fully changed over to it.

FAQ
The timing of the change from puppy food to adult food depends (among other things) on the expected size and breed of your dog.
Small breeds (such as Dachshunds and Pugs) can be given puppy food up to 12 months of age. Medium-sized dogs (e.g. Australian Shepherds, Border Collies) can usually switch to adult food after they have finished teething (approx. 6 months of age), while large breeds (e.g. Bernese Mountain Dogs, Rhodesian Ridgebacks) can be fed adult food from the age of 4 months.
If you would like a customised solution for your dog, please contact our customer service team at info@platinum.co.uk or call our free service number: 0800 158 80 25
If an earlier changeover to an adult food is made, we recommend following the feeding recommendations for puppies until they are 12 months old in order to ensure an adequate supply of nutrients with optimum (and not maximum) growth rates. You can also get more information on optimal feeding via our digital feed advisor.
Compared to conventional dry food, which is mainly made from meat meal, dog food prepared with FSG requires at least 70% fresh meat (muscle meat) to make PLATINUM dry food. There is a big difference between meat meal and fresh meat. Compared to fresh meat, meat meal is significantly inferior, as it is only produced after repeated heating under high pressure. As a result, meat meal has fewer nutrients, a higher ash content and lower protein digestibility than fresh meat. We know from cooking that meat juices and meat fat are what make a roast dinner a treat — which is why we don't prepare our Sunday roast with meat meal. Thanks to the process of cooking with FSG, PLATINUM dry food is completely free from attractants, flavourings, colourings, odours, and flavour enhancers.
No, you can rely on the fact that no animal experiments are done for the product development and production of our food and care products - neither by us, nor by any other third party.
To avoid causing problems in the puppy learning to produce the important substances contained in the extract on its own, they should not be supplied in the food in the first 3 months.
