Huh.
I would credit genetics for soft pasterns, lol.
I do use puppy formula for the first 5-6 months, but then again, I haven't
seen pastern issues in quite a while.
I have heard that cheap food (i.e. corn based) works wonders for
pano...probably the same theory, reduces protein, slows growth a bit...

We also do NOT use Puppy food past the age of about 5 weeks. It is too
calorically dense, nutrient dense, and often causes more problems. When we
see puppies come here with soft pasterns it is usually directly related to
using puppy food. We get the owners to put them on a standard adult food,
no frills for awhile and "viola" the pasterns are just fine.
