Feeding tips
| Puppy’s weight | Under 4 months | 4 to 9 months | 10 to 12 months |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1.5 kg | 75 g | 60 g | 50 g |
| 2.5 kg | 110 g | 90 g | 75 g |
| 5 kg | 185 g | 155 g | 120 g |
| 10 kg | 310 g | 255 g | 205 g |
Amounts are grams per day, by your puppy’s current weight and age. Check your puppy’s body condition every few weeks and tweak the portion if needed. A gradual change-over of about a week is kindest on the tummy, and a full water bowl should always be on hand.
Sizes available
Choose from 1.5 kg, 3 kg and 6 kg bags.
