FEEDING GUIDE - COLD PRESSED

We're excited you've chosen to feed Wilsons' cold pressed! You're one step away from a healthier, happier dog.

Our feeding guides below help you work out how much to feed your dog, and we always recommend weighing out every meal to prevent over/under feeding.

If you are moving from kibble, you'll need to feed slightly less per bowl as cold pressed is more nutritionally dense than kibble

The total g per day should be split into two meals, morning and evening. Puppies require 4 meals per day, then at four months reduce to 3 and then finally move to 2 meals at around six months old.

We recommend gradually introducing new food to your dog over a period of 7-10 days to prevent upsetting your dog's tummy.

How to use our table

1. Find your dog's current/ideal weight
2. Find the amount in KG per day
3. If your dog's weight is between two lines, simply divide the higher KG number by the weight in KG

EG: For a dog who is 22kg and low exercise, the closest number is 20kg and 235g per day, so (235÷20)x23 = 270.25g per day.

How to use our table

1. Find your dog's current/ideal weight
2. Find the amount in KG per day
3. If your dog's weight is between two lines, simply divide the higher KG number by the weight in KG

EG: For a small breed puppy who is 4 months and currently weighs 6kg, the closest number is 5kg and 121g per day, so (121÷5)x6 = 145.2g per day.

PAWS FOR THOUGHT

Cold pressed is a complete food for dogs, which means it can be fed straight from box to bowl, unless you wish to add your own extras or raw frozen.

Always monitor your dog’s weight and adjust feeding amounts as required. Our feeding table is only a guide and other factors including breed, condition and activity must be taken in to account.

If unsure, please check with your vet.

Remember that access to water must be available at all times!
