How Much Food Is Enough For Your Pet?

Food for pets often comes with a label at the back that indicates a feeding guide or how much you should feed your pet according to his stage in life. However, you should still learn that aside from the life stage, there are still other factors coming into play on how much you should give your pet including his activity level, build, and physiological condition.

A lot of pet owners do an ocular inspection of their pets and adjust how much they give depending on their assessment. If a dog seems to have excess weight, then the owner would provide twenty to thirty percent less food than the usual until he sheds the weight. If a dog appears to be thinner, an increase of 10 to 20% of food is given for one to two weeks until he gains normal weight.

To learn more about what is the ideal weight for your pet, consult with a vet Lakewood Ranch, FL.
