Sasha weighs approx. 7-8lbs. I'm pretty sure the feeding calculator said she is supposed to get a little over 3oz. of nuggets a day, but I don't feed 100% raw so she's getting 1 1/2 nuggets in the morning and 1/8 cup of kibble for dinner. She gets a bigger biscuit after both of her meals, a very small piece of treat after she potties (except when she potties after her meals since she gets the bigger biscuit) & then usually some sort of bigger treat in the evening just before bed. I love how she looks and she greatly looks forward to her meals & treat times.
If there's anything I've learned about food it's that you have to do what's best for your dog. A feeding guide could tell you one thing, but it may be too much or too little for your dog. I've noticed in most cases that feeding charts tend to tell you to feed your dog too much food. It's kind of guess and check to figure out what works best for your dog. |
