I'd switch them to adult food

the puppy food is so rich and they really don't need it.  Do it gradually over a couple of weeks so as not to upset them anymore and see how that goes.

i was thinking about that

i was thinking about that ...but was concerned about the protein levels in adult...i thought they needed higher protein then the adult food has in it..

No .. Not bulldog puppies

many breeders do not feed puppy food at all, but a life stages food from the beginning.  I fed puppy food but switched just as soon as I could around 10 weeks.  I did supplement Kohl (my keeper puppy) with Trophy Sure Grow recommended by another breeder because of his substance (from about 4 - 6 months only).
