How old are these pups? If they are between 12 and 20 weeks I would get a head start on it and get them off puppy chow and onto a premium brand commercial adult feed-- Then I would suppliment with 200mcg of Selenium daily--open the capsules and sprinkle it on one feeding daily. You should see results within 3 - 6 weeks time. Be sure that the pup does not get overweight. Ginny Altman "Please let me be as kind, intelligent, and wonderful as my dog thinks I am."

If they are going to come up, they will, usually around 7 months old. Wait. Syd **************************************Check out AOL's list of 2007's hottest products.
