Daily feeding guide

These amounts are starting points from ACANA’s UK feeding chart for this recipe. Adjust to age, activity and body condition, and check the feeding guide on your current bag.

The chart describes less-active dogs as having around one hour or less of daily exercise, and active dogs as having around one hour or more. Use your dog’s condition to fine-tune the portion.

This table is for adult maintenance. Puppies and pregnant or nursing dogs need different portions; follow the life-stage directions on the pack. This recipe is not suitable for the growth of large-breed dogs expected to reach 70lb (about 32kg) or more as adults.

Divide an adult dog’s daily allowance into two meals. Weigh portions and allow for treats or other foods. Keep fresh drinking water available at all times.

Switching to ACANA

Start with 25% ACANA and 75% of your dog’s previous food. Gradually increase the ACANA proportion over 10–14 days until the switch is complete.
