How To Get & Keep Your Pet In Great Shape

11 August 2008 No Comment

I’m sure you know the ‘secret’ to life!

It’s simply… There really aren’t any ‘secrets’. If you want a lot of money, you have to earn more and spend less. If you want to get good at something, you have to practice. If you want to get in shape you have to watch how much you eat and exercise.

But let’s face it… All of these are easier said than done. I realize that which is why I want to pass along a ‘user friendly tip’ that will help you get and keep your pet in great shape!

It will take a little discipline on your part, although not that much!

Ready?

It’s really just a matter of portion control. No secret there. But that becomes difficult on a day-to-day basis. The purpose of this lesson is to give you a sample chart that will make portion control a little easier.

Let’s take a look at the chart…

Weight of Dog In LBS.	Maintenance Cups Per Day	Weight Reduction Cups Per Day
3 – 17	1/4 – 1	1/5 – 3/4
18 – 23	1 – 1&1/4	3/4 – 1
24 – 45	1&1/4 – 2	1 – 1&3/4
46 – 65	2 – 2&1/2	1&3/4 – 2&1/4
66 – 85	2&1/2 – 3	2&1/4 – 2&3/4
86 – 105	3 – 3&1/2	2&3/4 – 3&1/4
106 – 125	3&1/2 – 4	3&1/4 – 3&3/4

Keep in mind that this chart is a general guideline for adult dogs and it doesn’t account for special feeding requirements based on age, size and activity levels. If you have specific questions, please consult your veterinarian.

I wish you and your pet good health and happiness.

All the best,
