Hello all, I have a 6yr old Frengle (beagle/frenchie mix) and he's a little overweight and trying to drop 7lbs. He's around 37lbs now.
I just switched him to wet food. Note: since moving back home oversears.. we don't have many dog food options so this is the best one I found so far.
Anyways, I used to feed him kibble 3 times per day (1/3 cup each) on diet. Now, I purchased this wet food and looking at the feeding recommendation on the back:
- For a 13kg dog, recommended to feed 2 1/2 cans
-Right now, I'm feeding him 1 can per day. Separated in 3 meals (1/3 of can) each meal. throughout the day, I do give him some tiny snacks (finger size) like chicken if I'm having dinner.
My questions: Is 1 can too much, too little? What should I be doing ?. Don't worry, we go for walks 20-25mins per day.
below are the ingredients:
Chicken, Chicken Broth, Chicken Liver, Brown Rice, Whole Dried Egg, Green Peas, Calcium Chloride, Guar Gum, Flaxseed, Salmon Oil, Choline Chloride, Salt, Pumpkin, Apples, Carrot, Cranberries, Ginger, L-Ascorbyl-2-Polyphosphate (source of Vitamin C), Zinc Proteinate, Vitamin E Supplement, Ferrous Sulfate, Iron Proteinate, Zinc Sulfate, Niacin Supplement, Thiamine Mononitrate, Copper Proteinate, Vitamin A Supplement, Selenium Yeast, Manganese Sulfate, Manganese Proteinate, D-Calcium Pantothenate, Pyridoxine Hydrochloride, Riboflavin Supplement, Biotin, Vitamin D3 Supplement, Vitamin B12, Calcium Iodate, Folic Acid
Feeding Guidelines:
2.2 kg (5 lb) ---> 5/8 can (234 g)
6.8 kg (15 lb)---> 1 1/2 cans (546 g)
13.6 kg (30 lb)---> 2 1/2 cans (919 g)
