Puppies up to 6 months old may be fed 3 to 4 times daily. Puppies six months to a year may be fed twice daily.
Feed Pregnant Dogs up to 50% more during the last 3 weeks of pregnancy. Nursing mothers require twice the amount of food as suggested in the daily guidelines and may be fed 3 to 4 times a day.
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.

I have a pit/boxer mix that i was feeding Solid Gold. The puppy food was good but the adult food gave her really bad gas. I switched to Canidae and the gas problem isnt as bad as Solid Gold but still isnt good. Maybe its my dog.....anyway, the product is good just not good for my dogs stomach.

Only grain-free food that has kept any weight on my 5yr old Shepherd.

My dogs are used to different foods, but they just could not get used to this one...
