When to Switch?

My girl is turning 9 mos on 10/11. I'm not too sure when to switch from LBP to LBA. When did you switch?

I've never really fed puppy foods to any of my dogs. I've always just gone ahead and put my dogs on adult foods even at 5-6 weeks old.

I switch mine to an ALS food as soon as I get then at 8 weeks. I don't feed puppy food. Nor do I feed large breed, senior, ect.....
