There have been some small changes to the manufacturing system over the years with new equipment which has resulted in some minor changes in the calories per cup. The formulas have remained the same. Currently, a cup of dog food has approximately 540 calories.

A switch from probiotic to prebiotic was initiated in response to regulations. To use probiotics, the amount of probiotic would have to be reported on the label, and because of shelf life for kibble products it is not possible to guarantee the amount of viable probiotic in the product post manufacturing. With prebiotics this is not a problem.

Suggested Use

One cup or one tasse = 250 ml

Toy (up to 25 lbs) 1/8 to 1/2 cup total per day
Small (25 - 40 lbs) 1/2 to 1-1/2 cups total per day
Medium (40 - 60 lbs) 1 to 2 cups total per day
Large (60 - 80 lbs) 2 to 3 cups total per day

Recommended:

Adult dogs - split total daily feeding amounts into two feedings - morning & evening preferred!

Puppies - split total daily feeding amounts into three or four feedings, small breeds puppy stage one year, large breeds puppy stage two years.

Feeding bowls should be stainless, glass or food-grade plastic only so the natural oils do not penetrate the bowl over time & distort the flavour of the fresh food!
