Please note that the quantities stated are only guidelines and should be
adapted depending on your pet's feeding requirements and activity
level. Please make sure your pet has fresh water at all times.
For lactating dogs: the requirement will depend on the
number of puppies, the relevant stage of nursing, and the milk yield.
The food can be provided without restriction (ad libitum) if required,
especially for large litters or large breeds, or in case of insufficient
weight gain. Depending on weight development, individual adjustments
may be advisable.
For pregnant dogs: please note that food requirements
during the final trimester will depend on the size of the breed and the
number of puppies. Due to the possibility of birthing difficulties and
other issues, however, you should take care to avoid over-feeding during
the lactation period.
Nursing puppies: the recommended feed quantities
stated are per animal, per day The specified feed quantities are based
on the weight of the adult dog. Spread the food over several meals/day
and offer it chopped and soaked with water (37°C) until the end of the
6th week of life. Dispose of any leftovers. The amount fed to the
puppies depends on their age, the amount of milk produced by the mother,
their nursing habits, and the individual development of the puppies.
