These guideline amounts are a starting point and your puppy may need more food depending upon age, activity and temperament. In order to reach optimal body condition, you may need to adjust food intake. This represents the total recommended volume of food per day. You should divide the total recommended feeding amount by the number of times you feed your puppy per day to get the actual portion size per feeding.
LEASE REMEMBER - To have clean, fresh water available for your puppy at all times.
THIS DOG FOOD FORMULA IS ALSO RECOMMENDED FOR PREGNANT OR NURSING DOGS
- During the last three weeks of gestation, increase feeding amounts by 25% to 50%. During lactation, feed as much as she wants (usually two to five times the guideline amount, depending on litter size).For puppies and pregnant or nursing mothers.

If your dog is not currently eating a food FROMM brand dog food - and you’d like to make the switch, there should be a transition period of mixing the new food with your dog’s current diet. Here’s a sample feeding schedule over a week’s time:
- Day 1 and 2: Feed approximately one-fourth of new food mixed with three-fourths of current food.
- Days 2 and 3: Mix half of old food with half of new food.
- Days 4 to 6: Give your dog three-fourths of the new prebiotics-containing food and one-fourth of its former chow.
- Day 7: Begin feeding your dog 100 percent of the new product.

the importance of protein - Dogs need protein
The Importance of Protein: Dogs need protein. That's because this component of many foods has numerous functions in your dog's -- and your -- body. It is best known for supplying amino acids that build hair, skin, nails, muscles, tendons, ligaments, and cartilage. Protein also plays a key role in producing hormones and enzymes that help to regulate daily, basic functions. The protein in dog foods can be supplied by animal sources, plant sources, or a combination of the two. Common animal-based protein sources used in pet food include chicken, lamb, fish meal, and beef. Common plant-based protein sources used in your pet's food include corn-gluten meal and soybean meal.
Your pet's gastrointestinal tract is simple and does not have the capacity to digest large amounts of plant products. In addition, high quality animal-source proteins contain all the essential amino acids your dog needs, whereas some plant-based proteins may be deficient in certain essential amino acids. So although your dog is classified as an omnivore, it is best fed as a carnivore.
Protein and Your Dog Feeding your dog a diet with primarily animal-based protein sources helps to do the following: Maintain your dog's muscle mass Reverse some age-related changes in skeletal muscles in senior dogs Enhance the long-term health and well-being of adult and senior dogs The bottom line is good-quality, meaty dog foods that will have your dog licking its chops and wagging its tail. At the same time, you can smile with confidence, knowing that you've fed your loyal friend what it craves and what its body needs.
