I think it depend a lot on the size and type of breed.

I have been advised by Lily's breeder to keep her on Junior food until 12 months old.

Re: Nature Diet!

Can I ask a stupid question? According to the guidlines, I should be feeding Oscar 290g of the ND. How much less should I feed him assuming I'm going to put some JBW dry food in there too? He's not overweight but he is very chubby.

Thanks in advance.

Re: Nature Diet!

I would give him no more the half a pack a day if you are also feeding dry

Thanks!

It says to give 3/4 of a pack, assuming that's the only thing he's fed, so I'll give a little less.

Oscar tried it for the first time today and hoovered it up. I've never seen him eat ANYTHING like that. He even ate the dry food mixed up in it. The stuff stinks and looks gross but he was in heaven.

Re: Nature Diet!

I feed Olivia three times a day. Today she's had 1/3 of a pack twice, with warm soaked JWB kibble. I think soaking the JWB works better than what I first tried yesterday, which was to microwave the ND and add a bit of water to make it runnier for her. She enjoyed it either way, but I think she prefers me to cube the ND and then add the soft soaked kibble.

I'm starting to really like this

Re: Nature Diet!

8 months in five days.

She was about 15kg when I had her weighed at the vets last, about two weeks ago.
