Black Hawk Original Mature Chicken & Rice is formulated to meet the nutritional levels established by the AAFCO Dog Food Nutrient Profiles for maintenance.
Feeding amounts may vary by breed, activity level, temperament and climate. Mature dogs over 7 years ted to slow down a little while benefiting from protein which supports their body condition. With even older dogs over 12yrs, body maintenance becomes a priority so feeding amounts should be adapted once more.
When changing foods, it is important to do so gradually so your pet gets used to new flavours and textures with minimal risk of digestive upset. We suggest a slow transition over one week, for example: Days 1-2 add 25% new food mixed into existing diet, Days 3-4: 50%, Days 5-6: 75%, Day 7: 100%. Slow down the mixing rate should your pet exhibit any gastrointestinal distress or avoidance to ensure the transition to their new diet is smooth.
