How Much Raw Dog Food Do I Feed?
Please refer to our raw dog food calculator for further daily/monthly feeding guidelines for your dog. Remember, no two dogs are identical in activity level and/or metabolic rate. Therefore, it is imperative to weigh your dog regularly to suit its ideal intake. I also see raw diet feeding adjustments in the summer when days are long, and their activity levels drop in winter. Furthermore, dogs with higher/lower activity levels may need a larger/smaller amount per serving.
Puppies (Less than one year of age)
Approximate feeding guidelines. Up to 10% of their body weight is divided between 3 – 4 daily feedings.
Low to Normal Activity, Pet Dogs (1 year of age and older)
2-3% of their body weight, evenly divided between 2 meals per day.
Endurance, High Activity, Performance, Sport, and Working Dogs
6-10% of their body weight, evenly divided between 2 meals per day.
