What is the difference between puppy milk cake and dog food?
Milk cake is for 1 to 4 month puppies; dog food is for dogs over 4 months. Milk cake is more complete and palatable but cannot replace dog food long term; its soft texture suits puppies with undeveloped teeth. Hard dog food aids dental growth; long-term milk cake after 4 months can cause obesity and mouth issues.
