Use feeding directions as a starting point

Package directions provide a general starting amount. Individual needs can vary with species, life stage, body condition, activity, environment, health, reproductive status, treats, and other foods.

• Record calories per kilogram and per familiar serving unit.
• Use the same measuring tool consistently.
• Account for treats, toppers, supplements, and food used with medication.
• Monitor body weight and body condition with veterinary guidance.
• Follow product or veterinary transition instructions when changing food.
