Skinner's Field & Trial puppy food
Skinner's Field & Trial is a working-dog brand, and its puppy and junior recipes are built with that background in mind rather than adapted from a companion-dog range. We stock a selection of the puppy and junior line as dry complete food.
What the puppy and junior range is for
Field & Trial's puppy recipes are formulated for growing dogs, with a junior step-up recipe for the stage between puppy and full adult food. The range grew out of a working-dog background, so it tends to appeal to owners of gundog and working breeds as much as anyone raising a family pet.
We stock a selection from the puppy and junior line rather than every product Skinner's makes. What is shown in the grid above is what we currently have available to order.
Who it tends to suit
This range suits an owner who wants a straightforward complete puppy food without needing to hunt for a specific grain-free or limited-ingredient formulation, particularly if they are raising a gundog or a similarly active working-type breed. It is not a specialist or prescription diet, and a puppy with a known health issue should be fed on your vet's specific advice rather than a general puppy range.
As with switching to any new food, introduce it gradually over several days rather than all at once, and keep an eye on your puppy's stools and appetite while they adjust.
A junior recipe sits between the puppy and adult stages for owners raising a larger or more active breed, since these dogs often need continued support for growth for longer than a small breed does before moving to a standard adult food.

Common questions
- Is Skinner's Field & Trial suitable for a non-working breed puppy?
- Yes, the puppy and junior recipes are complete foods formulated for growing dogs generally, not restricted to working breeds. The brand's background is in feeding working and gundog breeds, but the puppy range is not limited to them.
- When should I move my puppy from puppy food to junior food?
- This depends on your puppy's breed and expected adult size, since larger breeds generally spend longer on a puppy or junior formula than small ones. Your vet is the best person to advise on timing for your specific puppy.
- Does Giddy Pets stock the full Skinner's Field & Trial range?
- No, we stock a selection from the range rather than every product Skinner's makes, focused on the puppy and junior recipes. What is shown in the grid above reflects what we currently have available to order.
- Is a working-dog puppy food richer than a standard puppy food?
- Not necessarily richer, but it is formulated with active, working-type breeds in mind, which can mean a different calorie density to a puppy food aimed at a less active pet. Follow the feeding guide on the bag and adjust for your own puppy's activity level rather than assuming more energy is automatically needed.
