The daily amount of food that dogs need is influenced by the environmental temperature, and their activity, size and breed. The amount fed should be adjusted according to the dog's appetite and condition. Extremely active or hard-working dogs or pregnant/lactating females may require and consume 1 ½ to 3 times the amount of food indicated for their weight on the chart. Once per day feeding is adequate for dogs over six months of age. Always provide clean fresh water.

PUPPIES:

Black Gold Professional Dog Food is fully adequate and may be fed to puppies as soon as they will nibble at solid food (usually around three weeks of age). Start feeding your puppy a moistened gruel-like mixture containing two parts food to one part warm milk or water. The amount of liquid may be gradually reduced as the puppy grows older.  

Puppies and growing dogs should be fed all they will consume (approximately two times the amount of food indicated for their weight on the chart) in two or three feedings per day until they are about six months old. At that time their food allowance should be gradually reduced. Through proper food allowance and exercise, puppies should be kept in lean muscular condition until about 1½ years of age.
