Using the chart, divide the total cups per day by the total number of times you feed your puppy per day to
determine the portion size for each meal. Keep a clean bowl of fresh water available at all times. Every
puppy is a little different, so optimal feeding amounts may vary with age, size and activity level. Please
use this 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. Pregnant or nursing females may consume two or three
times the recommended amount per day.
Transitioning: Gradually mix in the new food over 7-10 days, increasing the amount of Merrick Grain Free
Puppy Real Texas Beef + Sweet Potato Recipe Dog Food each day. This gradual transition will help
avoid dietary upsets.
For your pet’s health, see your veterinarian regularly.
