    Feed Pregnant Dogs up to 50% more during the last 3 weeks of pregnancy.

    During Lactation and Puppies up to six months old, require twice the amount of food as an adult dog and they should be fed 3 to 4 times a day. Puppies, six months to a year, twice daily.

    Senior and Overweight Dogs may be fed a reduced amount, depending on the dog's weight and activity level.
The above Daily Feeding Guidelines are a good starting point on the amount of food suggested to be fed on a daily basis. If you feed more than once per day, simply divide the Daily Feeding Guidelines by the amount of times fed per day.
