Our food can be used as either a supplement or as a complete diet. As a supplement we recommend using at least 1/4 cup a day. Simply add in our food for a portion of what ever food you had been using.
As a primary food, the chart below gives you a guidline of how much to feed your dog. Please keep in mind that this is only a guideline. You are the best judge of how much food your dog needs. A couch potato will not need to eat as much as a dog that goes jogging a few miles each day. Moniter your dogs weight, and adjust accordingly. Puppies and Moms will also need a bit more, older dogs a bit less.
As with any new food, you will want to introduce our food to your dog slowly. We suggest a two week period of transition for any dog using our food for the first time. Start by feeding 1/4 PeopleFud with 3/4 of the old food, and slowly increase that mix over the next two weeks.
If you are counting calories, our food has on average 37 KCAL/oz
