Once my dogs have reached 20 - 20 - 20 - 20, am I able to switch to a cheaper food or should I keep them on 1777 their whole lives?
Thank you!

You can switch but honestly, I keep my "stars" on 1777. There is no evidence is does anything but I like to imagine them getting better quality food through their show career. (I have shown dogs on Pet House for Adult Dogs until 120 days just fine as well!)

I seriously think they lose like .00000003 or something itty bitty like that as they age in stats. So I always keep mine on 1777 if they are going to be shown.

I've had dogs that were showing well and in their last month started losing. Sessioned traits for a few days and boom back to winning.

A slight edge is worth the tiny cost.

Thank you both so much for your replies! I will keep all of my dogs on the 1777 formula
