Your dog is unique and feeding requirements will vary with environment, age, and activity. That’s why we suggest starting with the featured guidelines, and then monitoring weight and adjusting portions as needed. Feed twice daily and remember to always keep fresh, clean water available. Use a standard 250ml measuring cup. Serve dry or lightly moistened. See your veterinarian regularly. To help maintain freshness, we recommend sealing the bag tightly and storing it in a cool, dry location.
GESTATION: Increase from 25% to 50% of the adult amount
LACTATION: Feed “free choice”
PUPPIES: At 1 ½ - 3 months old, feed twice the adult amount. At 3-6 months, feed 1 ½ times the adult amount. At 6-11 months, feed 1 ¼ times the adult amount.

Reviews
"Great quality "
Posted byJ VAZon23rd Feb 2022Awesome nutrition however not the most palitable for my dog. I mix with mince and he will happily eat it
"Great for Fussy Puppies"
Posted byAimee Milneon16th Aug 2021Having tried several other brands I recently got this food for my very tiny PugxShih-Tzu puppy and was really pleased she liked it a lot. I soaked it in boiling water to start but eventually that became unnecessary and she is happily eating this food. The portion required is a much more sensible amount of food for a tiny dog and the biscuits are also really small. No grains or other nasties. Very Happy with this product.
"Orijen Small Breed Dry Dog Food"
Posted byAli Napieron18th Apr 2021I have struggled with my Jack Russells resistance to every dog food I have tried. Both wet and dry. He initially turned his nose up at this one but it didn't last more than 20 seconds! He now eats this twice a day as soon as he gets it. No more bowls of food being trashed because he has ignored then. If you have an impossibly fussy dog I would highly recommend you giving this a go.
