What happens if a pup on a 'generated' diet ie Puppy 1777 continues to be fed on that after it reaches 14 days?

All stats except for obedience will slowly decline. At 14 days, pups should be placed on an adult ration.

I understand that, but if a premium member creates a food in the ratio 1:7:7:7 do they have to make it clear when they create it that it's only for puppies or could they make a food called adult 1:7:7:7, or just 1:7:7:7, all exactly the same, and feed either to puppies or adults and it achieve the same effect on any age dog?

No mater how you mix your ration. It must be specified whether it is for a puppy or adult. There isn't a formula for all life stages on here.

Thankyou.

Although that makes me wonder if there should be - pay more, worry less about changing on day 13 (bear in mind non US players are usually not logged on when the pups change to adults)

This is how the page looks when you create a new ration.



There is no all life stages food.

Hope this clears up some of the confusion.

Thanks so much, that's very very helpful.

Happy to help

Dogs are fed only once a day, so long as you change them AFTER feeding on the day they are 13 and BEFORE feeding the day they turn 14 you are fine. I think they're generally fed around 8:30am SD time daily- so you have 24 hours from 8:30ish on the 13th day to 8:30 on their 14th day to change it.

Lilliput I think you are wrong - I changed a pup's ration after it was fed on day 13 to adult and because it wasn't 14 days old (to the hour that it was born) until AFTER it was fed on day 14 it knocked it's condition back to 19.9 from 20 and now I can't get it back up which is really really annoying.

I think what you mean is leave the pup until it's been fed on day 14 at 8.30 am (sim time) PROVIDING it wasn't born between 00.00 and 8.29am and then switch to adult.

My apologies to Lilliput - I read your post wrongly and yes YOU ARE RIGHT.

Note to myself:

Read every post at least TWICE before responding

So sorry.

ps I tried to delete my post as soon as I reread yours but couldn't.
