We have a 2 year old female GSP, Rainy. She has been such a blessing to my husband and I. He didn’t “want” a dog because he didn’t want the responsibility, but I grew up with dogs and needed one. We took her to multiple puppy training classes and socialization classes, we also sent her to beginner gun and bird training for 3 weeks (not far away because I had to be able to see her). She is the sweetest thing ever, but we treat her like our child, and walk or go run around or go to the dog park 5-7 days a week for minimum of 45 minutes. She gets groomed once a month and goes to doggy daycare during the winter a couple times a week. When she is at home with us, she LOVES to cuddle on the couch and “help” us with daily tasks. Great watchdog, only barks when she feels like we need to be warned. We have a baby coming in April, so I have been walking around and “taking care” of a baby doll and she won’t leave my side when I am holding the doll. I have no doubt that she will be a great big sister, and in the future I know we will continue having a GSP in our family!!! Just love them up, give them treats, train and exercise and they are the most AMAZING dog.

Actually, in short, no. At 10 weeks s/he is definitely still a Puppy, and so puppy food is best with its higher protein 18-22% content, nutrients for growth and flavor puppies are more likely to prefer. We have two little guys and they each prefer different food blends as certain products irritate their tummies. Remember to change over gradually to help avoid tummy upsets and loose stools.

She sounds lovely Joe . 🙂
