Adult Dogs: The daily amount of food that adult dogs require is influenced by their environment, activity, size and breed. The amount fed should be adjusted according to the dog's appetite and body condition. Extremely active or hard-working dogs may require and consume 1 1/2 to 3 times the amount of food indicated for their weight on the chart. Once per day feeding is adequate for adult dogs. Remember to provide plenty of fresh, clean water in a clean container at all times. For your pet's health, see your veterinarian regularly.
