Feeding Guide
There is a lot of variance in the feeding guides you may already have used. Our view is that you are by far the best judge of what is the right amount to feed your dog. So as to give you a guide, have a look at the table below which will set it all out for you and is based on the recommendations of the World Small Animal Veterinary Association.
| Size | Body Weight (kg) | Feeding range (grammes per day) | Starting amount (grammes per day) | Cost per day (£) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Small (1) | less than 15 | 95-300 | 220 | 2.66 |
| Medium (2) | 16-30 | 390-542 | 470 | 4.06 |
| Large (2) | 31-45 | 593-746 | 670 | 5.79 |
| Giant (2) | 45-60 | 775-907 | 840 | 7.26 |
(1) Based on 400g meal size
(2) Based on 1.0kg meal size
Start feeding Monty’s Larder to your dog each day with a Starting Amount (as in the table above) that is in the middle of the Feeding Range.
Start at the lower end of the Feeding Range if your dog is:
overweight
does less than 20 minutes exercise per day
has been neutered (castrated or spayed)
Start at the top end of the Feeding Range if your dog is:
underweight
does 2 hours or more exercise per day
is pregnant
These feeding rates are approximate and the amount you feed your dog should be adjusted up or down to maintain optimum body weight and condition.
