For Puppies:

Puppies may start nibbling Blue Seal Performance Dog Formula at around four to five weeks of age. You may feed it dry, but moistening may enhance acceptance. If desired, self–feeding may be started at any age after weaning. If puppies are not self–feeding, but on a schedule, feed them three times per day up to six months of age and two times per day from six months to one year of age.

For Adult Dogs:

Allowances must be made for the age and activity of the dog. Feed only what the dog will consume in a reasonable period of time. Some dogs, for instance, may be fed free choice if they are working hard. Any dogs prone to digestive disorders (bloat, pancreatitis, ulcers) should be given food in multiple meals.

For Pregnant Females:

Using the Suggested Feeding Plan, offer 50% more food during pregnancy.

For Lactating Females:

Using the Suggested Feeding Plan, offer two to three times the normal amount of food.

Introducing a New Dog Food:

To avoid dietary upset when introducing your pet to a new food, switch to the new food over the course of a week by gradually decreasing the old food and increasing the new.

Provide plenty of fresh water.

The suggested feeding plan is intended solely as a guide. The variables of management, environment, and breed may dictate changes in the animal’s requirements.
