• Adult dogs should be fed either once or twice daily.
• When you first start feeding Natural Balance L.I.D. Limited Ingredient Diet Dry Dog Food, start with the amounts recommended in the table.
• Energy requirements vary with environmental conditions, temperature, and your dog's activity.
• The amount of food should always be adjusted to suit your dog's needs.

For pregnant females

A minimal increase is needed during the first 6 weeks. Increase the amount fed up to 25% during weeks 7, 8, and 9.

For lactating females

Immediately after whelping, the nutritional demand increases by 50% compared to maintenance levels. Feed in 3 equal meals per day.

For working dogs

The nutritional requirements will vary accordingly based on the work your dog will be asked to perform. As the workload increases, the demand for protein and fat increases proportionally. Dogs in hard training will generally require twice the maintenance levels.

For older dogs

As your dog begins to age, his energy expenditure will decrease. Decreasing the amount of food accordingly will allow for maintaining proper body weight for a less active dog.

Transition Instructions

When switching your dog's diet, we recommend that it be done gradually over a 5-7 day period.
