Good to know
- Every few weeks, feel your dog’s ribs and look for a waist from above, then adjust portions in small steps.
- Switch foods gradually over 7 to 10 days, mixing a little more of the new food into the old each day.
- Weigh daily portions on kitchen scales. A scoop or measuring cup can be well off, and small errors add up over months.
Common questions
How much dry food should I feed my dog?
Start with the feeding guide on the pack for your dog’s weight, then adjust for activity, age and whether your dog is neutered. Weigh the food rather than using a cup. If your dog gains or loses weight over a few weeks, change the amount by a small step and keep checking.
Is dry or wet food better for dogs?
Neither is better in itself: both can be complete and balanced. Dry food is cheaper per day, keeps longer once opened and is easy to use in puzzle toys. Wet food contains much more moisture and tends to appeal more to fussy or older dogs. Many owners feed a mix, reducing each portion so the total stays right.
