Everybody is going to have their own opinions about which dog food is best suited for their dog or dogs. In truth there are quite a few really good foods available that contain all the right elements that make up a well balanced and nutritious meal for your dog. My dry dog food of choice for our adult Bull Terriers is "Taste of the Wild." I'm a firm believer that no matter what brand of dog food you utilize it should be one that's free of grain. Here's a link to many other recommended grain free dry dog foods - http://www.dogfoodadvisor.com/best-dog-foods/best-grain-free-dog-foods/best-grain-free-dog-foods-dry/

For puppies my choice is Royal Canin. I've had really good luck with this food over the years with both puppies and expectant/nursing mothers.

In order to provide a well balanced diet sometimes dry dog foods just aren't enough. I used many supplements in the past for my dogs and have had great results in their overall health and energy levels.

We've been asked many times what foods and diet we utilize on our dogs. Currently here's what I feed and supplement my dogs:

Taste of the Wild dry dog food (Salmon Flavor)
Nupro Gold Supplement
Grizzly Oil

This combination has proven to provide an excellent diet for my bullies and they love it too. I have never had any problems with any dog that's been on this diet. I've experienced exceptional energy levels, health, shiny coats, less shedding, and other beneficial attributes from this particular diet.

Bulking up a Bull Terrier

Bull Terriers are supposed to be lean and athletic with noticeable muscle tone. Some Bull Terriers are so energetic they'll burn through every calorie they consume and may have a skinnier appearance than normal. Often it can simply be attributed towards their genetics. However, there are foods that can be used in conjunction with a good diet to add weight to your dog. One very productive way is by utilizing a raw meat diet. I have added a raw meat recipe to my normal dogs' diet on several bull terriers and seen outstanding results. Personally I like to provide my studs with a raw meat diet in conjunction with their normal diet. Most young males are very active and (depending on their lifestyle) may require a more balanced diet to keep weight on and looking good.
