Performatrin® Healthy Weight Small Breed Formula Dog Food is recommended for small breed adult dogs, approximately 10 months of age or older. The amount of food required to maintain your dog in an optimum body condition varies according to numerous factors, including size, age and activity level. Use the chart below as a guide but make adjustments according to your dog’s individual needs. Ideally, divide your dog’s daily portion into 2 equal meals per day.
When feeding Performatrin® Healthy Weight Small Breed Formula Dog Food for the first time, a gradual change from your dog’s current food will minimize digestive upset.
