Puppies and Kittens (up to 6 months): Typically require 5-6% of their ideal body weight in raw food daily
Adults (1-7 years): Generally require about 2-3% of their ideal body weight
Seniors (7+ years): May need adjustments based on activity level and health status, but they usually require around 2-3%

Breed Considerations

Some breeds have specific dietary needs and tendencies. For example, larger breeds may need more joint support, while smaller breeds may require more frequent feeding. Check with your vet for specific advice relating to your dog’s breed.

Activity Level

Sedentary: Less active dogs need fewer calories, about 2-3% of their body weight
Moderately Active: Dogs with average activity levels need about 2.5-3%
