The amount to feed depends upon the activity
level, age, breed and metabolic make-up of the dog.
Each dog is different.
You may need to increase or decrease the amount
of food accordingly. Above is a chart that shows how
many ounces to feed for typical dogs. Research shows
that you should feed about 2.5% of your pet’s ideal
body weight. When using this chart, please use the
proper weight of the dog, not the actual weight.
Remember, dogs are healthier when lean! Lactating
females and puppies should be fed 2-3 times the
adult requirement.
Please do not heat the food. Keep the food
frozen and thaw as needed. Most raw meats will stay
for 2-3 days, properly refrigerated. Do not leave
food out more than 15 minutes. We also recommend
using stainless steel or glass feeding dishes. Wash
dishes in hot soapy water after each feeding.
