Directions: How much food your dog eats each day is dependent upon size, level of activity, stage or reproduction, and environment. When feeding in measured amounts, feed according to the weight of your dog. When feeding with our 96% meat cans, reduce dry amount fed by 1/2 cup for every 6 oz of wet food. Use this table as a GENERAL GUIDE to determine how much Before Grain to feed your dog. Before Grain Chicken is formulated to meet the nutritional levels established by the AAFCO Dog Food nutrient profiles for all life stages.
