Using the chart below, divide the total cups per day by the total number of times you feed your dog per
day to determine the portion size for each meal. Keep a clean bowl of fresh water available at all times.
Every dog is a little different, so optimal feeding amounts may vary with age, size and activity level.
Please use the below information as an initial recommendation only and adjust when needed. Dry and
wet food in combination will help to increase the level of water in your dog’s diet. If feeding with wet food,
reduce dry amount by 1/2 cup for every 6 oz. of wet food.
For dogs over 100 lbs: Add 1/3 cup per additional 10lbs.
Transitioning: Gradually mix in the new food over a 5 - 7 day period, increasing the amount of Merrick
Backcountry Great Plains Red Recipe each day.
