How much do I feed?
As a general rule of thumb, a healthy weight adult dog will consume between 1-3% of their bodyweight per day. The exception to this rule are puppies, they need to be fed up to 9% of bodyweight per day in three meals until 12 weeks old, then gradually reduce the amount fed to 3% at 12 months old.
Please remember that daily food includes any treats, bones and other food, so please bear this in mind when feeding.
FurFresh serving size is calculated for healthy weight adults at 1% of body weight per day (lower number in the table below) designed to be the main meal of the day and supplemented with a raw bone or other healthy treat. If not supplementing any other meals and you’re feeding only FurFresh for all meals per day, calculate at 2% of bodyweight (higher number in the table below). Suitable for all life stages including puppies (except for giant breed puppies - Great Danes, Bullmastiff etc).
Pregnant and lactating dogs should be fed at 4% of bodyweight per day.
Use the below table as a guide but use your dog’s appearance as a guide.

A note on our vitamin mix: Whilst our food would be more than nutritionally adequate, and we validate the theory of balanced over time feeding, to meet all of the nutritional requirements of commercially made pet food and to ensure that we're still meeting the on-paper standards of AAFCO when fed raw, or cooked, we need to add an amino and essential vitamin blend. We use chelated trace mineral supplements, which is a far more expensive option, but is by far the best choice. Our vitamin and amino blend is over 99% natural. Some key vitamins like D and K aren't viable in their natural form, so to ensure that those vitamins are present at a level that is required and needed, we need to add a synthetic version. Because the blend and the two vitamins represent such a small component of our overall mix, we are proud to say our daily food is 99.98% natural.
