How much should I feed my dog? Does the food I’m providing meet my dog’s
nutritional needs? As our knowledge of the relationship between diet and
health continues to advance and as the range of foods available for dogs continues
to expand, it’s more important than ever to base feeding choices on

The information in this pamphlet is based on Nutrient Requirements of Dogs
and Cats, a technical report issued by the National Research Council as part

the nutritional needs of animals use the Animal Nutrition Series to guide
future research.
