FEEDING GUIDE:
Using the chart below, divide the total cups per day by the total number of times you feed your dog per day to determine the portion size for each meal. Keep a clean bowl of fresh water available at all times.

Every dog is different, so optimal feeding amounts may vary with age, size, and activity level. This chart is an initial recommendation only and should be adjusted as needed. Combining dry and wet food helps increase the level of water in your dog's diet.

If feeding with wet food, reduce dry amount by ½ cup for every 6 oz of wet food.

Goal Weight (lbs) ................ Cups/Day (Approx.)
3 .................................................... ⅓ cup
6 .................................................... ⅔ cup
10 .................................................. 1 cup
15 .................................................. 1¼ cups
20 .................................................. 1½ cups
30 .................................................. 2 cups
40 .................................................. 2½ cups
50 .................................................. 3 cups
60 .................................................. 3¼ cups
70 .................................................. 3⅔ cups
80 .................................................. 4 cups
90 .................................................. 4½ cups
100 ................................................ 4¾ cups

For dogs over 100 lbs., add ⅓ cup per additional 10 lbs.
