Bakers puppy food at Giddy Pets
Bakers Puppy is a budget-friendly complete dry food built around visible chunks of vegetable mixed through the kibble, most recognisably in the Superfoods Chicken with Vegetables recipe we stock. It suits owners who want an affordable, easy-to-find puppy kibble rather than a premium or grain-free formula, and it is worth introducing gradually alongside whatever your puppy is already eating, following the guide on the pack.
What's actually in the range
The Bakers Puppy Superfoods Chicken with Vegetables recipe we stock is a complete dry kibble with visible pieces of vegetable running through it, which is the range's most recognisable feature on the shelf. It is formulated as a complete puppy food rather than a mixer or complementary product.
It sits at the value end of the puppy food market compared with grain-free or single-protein ranges, which is exactly the trade-off it is designed around — a straightforward, affordable complete food rather than a specialist formula.
Who it suits
It is a sensible choice if you want a widely available, budget-friendly puppy kibble and your puppy has no known sensitivities that call for a limited-ingredient or grain-free diet specifically. It suits owners feeding a single puppy on an everyday budget more than anyone hunting for a specialist single-protein formula.
If your puppy has a known food sensitivity, or your vet has recommended a particular type of diet, that guidance takes priority over any general brand recommendation, Bakers included. For a straightforward, healthy puppy with no dietary concerns, it does the basic job it sets out to do.
Introducing it properly
Any change of food, Bakers or otherwise, is best done gradually over about a week, mixing increasing amounts of the new food with decreasing amounts of the old one to give your puppy's digestion time to adjust.
Follow the feeding guide on the pack for your puppy's current weight and expected adult size rather than guessing at a portion, and check in with your vet if your puppy's weight gain or stools seem off after the switch.

Common questions
- Is Bakers Puppy food good quality?
- It is a straightforward, budget-friendly complete food rather than a premium or grain-free option, and it does the basic job of providing balanced nutrition for a growing puppy. Whether it is the right choice depends on your puppy's individual needs and any sensitivities they have, which your vet can advise on.
- How do I switch my puppy onto Bakers food?
- Introduce it gradually over about a week, mixing in increasing amounts of the new food with decreasing amounts of whatever your puppy was eating before. A sudden switch is more likely to upset a puppy's stomach than a gradual one.
- Does Bakers Puppy food contain real vegetables?
- The Superfoods Chicken with Vegetables recipe includes visible pieces of vegetable mixed through the kibble, which is one of the range's more distinctive features. The exact ingredient breakdown is listed on the pack, which is worth checking against your puppy's specific needs.
