This calculator provides a general daily total (grams/day) for your dog, not per meal and not specific to Pet’s Kitchen products. Use it as a guide and adjust for your dog’s appetite, activity, and body condition.
More info
- Treats ≤10% of daily intake (subtract from food).
- Transition gradually over 5–7 days if changing foods.
- Check body condition: ribs easy to feel, waist visible from above.
- Very small (<3 kg) or very large (>45 kg) dogs may need tweaks.
- Always consult your vet for puppies, seniors, or medical needs.
Calculate Your Pet’s Portion
Low: couch-potato • Average: 1–2 walks • High: working / very active
How the calculation works
Activity multiplies this (Low ×0.8, High ×1.2).
Example: 10 kg adult = ~250 g/day; high activity = ~300 g/day.
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What about treats?
We love treating our pets! Just remember the 10% rule: treats should make up no more than 10% of your pet’s total daily calories. If you give a lot of treats, you may need to slightly reduce their main meal portion.
-
My dog still seems hungry after eating. What should I do?
Some dogs live to eat and will give you “hungry eyes” no matter what! Fresh food is highly digestible and satisfying, but if your pup is inhaling their food in seconds, try using a slow-feeder bowl. It turns mealtime into a fun puzzle and helps them feel fuller.
-
My vet recommended a different amount. Who is right?
Always follow your veterinarian’s specific advice. They know your pet’s health history best, especially if they have a medical condition that affects their dietary needs. Our guide is for healthy pets, but your vet’s recommendation is the one to follow.
