question about puppy food

Hey guys! I have a 14-week-old corgi. I've been feeding him Nutrisource puppy food for small and medium breeds, as recommended by his breeder. Then I hopped on here and read that he should be on large breed kibble. I bought an 18lbs bag a couple weeks ago .. I've been mixing it with Freshpet Vital complete meals (which is for all life stages) because he started getting picky about just dry kibble. (Ratio is about 1:2, with more kibble) Would it be safe to keep feeding him the mix or should I just get rid of the kibble bag and get him large breed puppy food right away?

I ended up feeding my corgi a raw diet because she was getting chronic UTI's and nothing worked. As soon as I switched to raw her health improved significantly. I swear by the raw diet but its not for everyone.

I'm feeding Jeli a raw diet also because of the UTI issue. She had several as a small puppy but she hasn't had a problem since I switched. I use Stella and Cheweys raw patties, the small ones that are about the size of a hocky puck. One in the morning and one at night. I supplement with a few green beans, apples, brocolli or carrots, etc. She also gets a squirt of salmon oil in her dinner and a cranberry dmannose chew for breakfast. For training treats I use grain free kibble. I'm using Great Life kibble right now. She loves the buffalo flavor. So far she looks very fit and healthy and her coat is beautiful. She is getting a lot of food when you add it all up. Since she is very active right now I don't have to worry too much about weight gain, but eventually I will have to cut down on something. I'm sure she will protest! :)
