Use our food portion calculator to find the perfect portion based on your pup’s size, lifestyle, metabolism, and feeding habits. 

Calculate Portion

Keeping your dog a healthy weight extends the quality time you get to spend with them. A study found that dogs that maintained a healthy weight lived 5-10% longer than their overweight counterparts!
