How much food does a dog need?
Guideline, scales and exercise.
The guideline
Complete food shows a recommendation by weight. Age, breed, exercise and neutering change how much he needs, the pack is only the start.
The rib test
With a dog at a good weight you can feel the ribs easily but not clearly see them. From above you can see a waist.
Treats count too
Treats and chews are part of the daily amount. As a rule of thumb they make up at most about a tenth.
Rest after eating
Avoid wild play right before or after eating, especially with large dogs. Let him rest after his meal.
In shortThe pack gives the guideline, the rib test and the scales show whether it fits.
