Feeding Guidelines:
Feeding requirements will vary with breed, environment, age and activity level. Grain-free foods are nutrient dense, so you may need to reduce the amount of feed as compared to your pet's current diet. Monitor your dog's weight and adjust their feed as needed. Feeding twice daily is recommended (splitting the total daily amount below in half at each feeding), and always have fresh, clean water available. When switching diets, it is recommended to transition over a 5-7 day period, increasing the ratio of the new food each day versus the present diet to avoid digestive disturbances.
