Feeding Guidelines

• Early Puppyhood: Puppies can begin nibbling solid food at 3–4 weeks. Keep moistened food available and allow them to eat at will until fully weaned, usually around 6–8 weeks.

• After Weaning: Feed moistened or dry, following a regular schedule. Three smaller meals daily are a good starting point for younger puppies; gradually transition to two meals as they mature.

• Adjust Portions: Feeding amounts depend on age, expected adult size and activity level. Monitor body condition and adjust portions to avoid overfeeding.

• Pregnant & Nursing Dogs: Feed enough to maintain ideal body condition during pregnancy. Food intake may double or quadruple during lactation.

• Food Transition: Gradually transition over 7–10 days when changing foods to help avoid digestive upset.
