How to Use

Recommended Feeding Guide (Standard 8 oz dry measuring cup) — Adults 12+ months up to 70 lbs, and 18+ months over 70 lbs:

Dogs over 120 lbs: Add 1/3 cup per additional 10 lbs of body weight.

Disclaimer: This feeding information is provided by the manufacturer. Always consult your veterinarian before changing or adjusting your dog's diet.

Directions for Use

• Transition Gradually: Begin by replacing 20-25% of your dog's current food with this formula each day, working up to a full switchover over five days.
• Sensitive Stomach Dogs: For dogs whose digestion is easily disrupted, spreading the transition over 10-14 days gives the gut a better chance to adapt without any setback.
• Feeding Portions: Use the chart above as a baseline and adjust daily amounts to reflect your dog's breed, age, and how physically demanding their routine is.
• Split Daily Meals: Splitting the recommended daily amount into two separate servings helps keep energy levels more consistent and makes digestion easier to manage.
• Fresh Water Always: Ensure a clean bowl of fresh water is available at all times, especially important during transition to a higher-fiber diet.
• Eliminate Treats Temporarily: Cutting out treats and wet food for the first few days of the switch gives your dog's digestive system a cleaner run at adjusting to the new formula.
• Stool Changes Are Normal: A temporary increase in stool volume during transition is not a cause for concern and often points to a more active and responsive digestive system.

Additional Information

Precautions

• Adult Dogs Only: This formula is designed for adult dogs (12+ months for dogs up to 70 lbs; 18+ months for dogs over 70 lbs).
• Transition Slowly: Abrupt food changes can upset your dog's digestion; always introduce new food over a gradual 5-day period.
• Monitor Stool Consistency: If stools become loose and do not firm up after a few days, slow the transition process further.
• Consult Your Vet: Speak with your vet before switching your dog's diet, especially if they have any underlying health conditions that could be affected by the change.

Possible Side Effects

• Initial Stool Changes: In the first week of transitioning, some dogs may pass softer stools or a higher volume than usual as the body works through the dietary change.
• Potential Allergic Reactions: Sensitivities to certain ingredients can occur in some dogs, so keep a close watch after meals for any signs that something in the formula is not sitting well.
• Digestive Adjustment Period: A temporary shift in digestion is not uncommon when fibre levels change, and things typically settle once the dog's system has had time to adapt.

Storage Information

• Store in a Cool, Dry Place: Keep the bag sealed and tucked away from heat, moisture, and direct light to stop the food from deteriorating between uses.
• Seal Bag After Use: Press the bag firmly shut after every feeding to keep air and moisture out and the ingredients in good condition.
• Keep Away From Pests: Store in a secure container or closed cupboard to reduce the risk of insects or rodents getting into the food.
