For pregnant or nursing adult dogs, we recommend free-choice feeding. Some dogs may require more or less food than the guidelines depending on activity level and other factors.
TRANSITIONAL FEEDING
A gradual incorporation of new food helps prevent any stomach upsets. Adding the new diet in 25% increments can make the transition to a new diet smooth and comfortable.

Quality product We have been using Taste of the Wild products to feed our 9 year labrador Ruby for a number of years, and have remained impressed by the quality of the food. She has a gorgeous thick coat and is showing no signs of slowing down! Highly recommend.
