HOW MUCH TO FEED
An adult dog needs typically 2 to 3% of their ideal bodyweight. Puppies from the age of 8 weeks
typically need 5 to 6% of their body weight. A fast-growing period occurs between 6 - 18 months, so
it’s important to regularly check their weight and adjust accordingly. Please see the table below as a
guide - these are not set in stone, so you may need to adjust the portion size accordingly
to suit your dog’s individual needs.
