Puppies need lots of support in their first months of life, and need special nutrition to cater for their rapidly developing bodies and immune systems. The right food helps to promote healthy digestion, which ensures that your puppies have healthy skins and coats, strong teeth and bones and their high energy demands are sustained.

Recommended number of feedings is as follows: Feed puppies under 3 months of age 3-4 daily feedings of moistened food. After 3 months of age gradually reduce moistening and feed 3 times per day. From 6-18 months provide 2 daily feedings. Remove food after your puppy has finished eating (after 10-15 minutes for each of the above meals). Reduce the amount of food offered if the puppy becomes overweight.
Each puppy is different and depending on the puppy’s activity level and body condition, food amounts and/or time allowed to eat may need to be adjusted.
Ultra Dog Superwoof Puppy can also be used during the gestation and lactation period.
These amounts are averages based on moderately active dogs at normal environmental temperatures. Individual needs vary and feeding should be adjusted as required to maintain your dog at a lean, healthy body weight.
