How do I feed my dog ​​using the B.A.R.F. diet?

A rule of thumb is to feed 2-4% of your pet's body weight. Smaller dogs will require a higher percentage of their body weight, while larger dogs will require a lower percentage.

Dogs weighing about 10 pounds (4.5 kg) eat about 1 to 2 pounds (0.9 to 1.1 kg) per week, or about 8 pounds (4 kg) per month. Dogs weighing about 25 pounds (11.3 kg) eat about 5 pounds (2.3 kg) per week, or about 20 pounds (9.1 kg) per month. Dogs weighing about 50 pounds (22.7 kg) eat about 8 pounds (3.6 kg) per week, or about 35 pounds (14.5 kg) per month. Dogs weighing about 80 pounds (34 kg) eat about 10 pounds (4.8 kg) per week, or about 45 pounds (19 kg) per month. Dogs weighing about 120 pounds (45.4 kg) eat about 14 pounds (6.1 kg) per week, or about 55 pounds (24.5 kg) per month.

How do I feed my puppy?

Puppies require a higher percentage of food than adult dogs. Puppies also need to be fed more frequently throughout the day. If your puppy doesn't finish the entire portion, that's fine - scoop up the rest and save it for the next meal. If food is consistently left over at each meal, you will need to reduce the percentage you feed. It is important to monitor your puppy's condition closely during this period. You may need to adjust the percentages and feeding schedules (as every dog ​​is different even when they are two of the same breed, age and litter) depending on your puppy's requirements, these are initial guidelines:
2 - 4 MONTHS, 10% - 8% of current body weight, FEED 3 DAILY PORTIONS.
4 - 6 MONTHS, 8% - 6% of current body weight, FEED 3 DAILY PORTIONS.
6 - 8 MONTHS, 6% - 4% of current body weight, FEED 2 DAILY PORTIONS.
8 - 12 MONTHS 4% - 3% of current body weight, FEED 2 DAILY PORTIONS.
+ 12 MONTHS 4% - 2% of the current body weight depending on the dog's activity, sports dogs are fed with more than 5% during a training regimen, FEED 1 DAILY PORTION MANDATORY because in dogs after the 12th month the metabolism changes radically. (For more information, contact us)
