How many grams of kibble should you give a dog?
Your dog's health depends entirely on their diet. This means the ingredients, but also
how many grams of kibble your dog gets. So make sure you are well informed to provide your furry friend with enough kibble.
Provide quality food
Without the right ingredients, you can give as much kibble as you want, but your dog won't get healthier. So choose food with a high meat or fish content, fats, carbohydrates, and the necessary vitamins and minerals. And at Prima Diervoeding, we just happen to have healthy dry and wet food that your four-legged friend will love!
Follow the feeding chart
On the packaging, you will find a feeding chart indicating the required amount of kibble for your dog; all weight classes are included. Always use this feeding chart as a guideline.
Is your dog less or more active? Then your furry friend may need a higher or lower amount. However, do not adjust the amount arbitrarily; first consult your veterinarian.
Prevent overweight and underweight
If you give your dog too much kibble, the chance of overweight is quite high, unfortunately with all the consequences. Think of joints being extra burdened, less energy, and heart problems.
Moreover, too little food can also cause health problems. Underweight, low energy levels, shedding, and a dull coat are common complaints.
How many times a day?
Now that you know how many grams of kibble your dog needs, one question remains: how often should you fill your furry friend's food bowl? Simple, divide the required amount over two to three meals a day; breakfast, lunch, and dinner! Do this at fixed times to add extra structure.
Also, don't forget to walk your dog well before mealtime. Note: do this before your four-legged friend gets their meal. Exercise after eating can increase the risk of gastric torsion.
