| These guideline amounts are a
starting point and your puppy may need more food
depending upon age, activity and temperament. In
order to reach optimal body condition, you may need
to adjust food intake. This represents the total
recommended volume of food per day. You should
divide the total recommended feeding amount by the
number of times you feed your puppy per day to get
the actual portion size per feeding. |
|
| PLEASE REMEMBER - To have clean,
fresh water available for your puppy at all times. |
|
| This dog food formula is also
recommended for pregnant or nursing dogs |
- During the last three weeks of gestation,
increase feeding amounts by 25% to 50%. During
lactation, feed as much as she wants (usually
two to five times the guideline amount,
depending on litter size).
- When introducing Iams ProActive Health Smart
Puppy food, gradually mix it with your puppy's
current food over the course of 4 days.

| How to Begin Feeding a new Dog
Food brand and/or a dog food Containing Prebiotics |
| If your dog is not currently eating a food that
contains prebiotics and you’d like to make the
switch, there should be a transition period of
mixing the new food with your dog’s current diet.
Here’s a sample feeding schedule over a week’s time:
|
|
- Day 1 and 2: Feed
approximately one-fourth of new food mixed with
three-fourths of current food.
- Days 2 and 3: Mix half of
old food with half of new food.
- Days 4 to 6: Give your dog
three-fourths of the new prebiotics-containing
food and one-fourth of its former chow.
- Day 7: Begin feeding your
dog 100 percent of the new product.
|
| |
| DOGGIE TREATS WE PREFER AND
RECOMMEND |
- Raw "natural fed beef" rib bone, (just the
bone without the meat). Twice a week, 2 pieces
(four or six inch in length). The rib beef bone
is soft which can easily be digested and will
whiten teeth naturally.
- For training purposes please use small
pieces of "beef" hot dogs ONLY!
|
|
| The Missing Link "PLUS" with

with all-natural, human-grade whole foods,
beneficial nutrients and glucosamine to enhance
your dog’s overall health, agility and mobility.

by providing valuable vitamins, minerals and
trace elements which contribute to a well
balanced diet. Along with its high carotene
content (an important pre-cursor to vitamin A),
Olewo carrots also contain significant B-group
vitamins.

| the importance of protein -
Dogs need protein |
The Importance of
Protein: Dogs need protein. That's because this
component of many foods has numerous functions in
your dog's -- and your -- body. It is best known for
supplying amino acids that build hair, skin, nails,
muscles, tendons, ligaments, and cartilage. Protein
also plays a key role in producing hormones and
enzymes that help to regulate daily, basic
functions. The protein in dog foods can be supplied
by animal sources, plant sources, or a combination
of the two. Common animal-based protein sources used
in pet food include chicken, lamb, fish meal, and
beef. Common plant-based protein sources used in
your pet's food include corn-gluten meal and soybean
meal.
Your pet's gastrointestinal tract is simple and does
not have the capacity to digest large amounts of
plant products. In addition, high quality
animal-source proteins contain all the essential
amino acids your dog needs, whereas some plant-based
proteins may be deficient in certain essential amino
acids. So although your dog is classified as an
omnivore, it is best fed as a carnivore.
Protein and Your Dog Feeding your dog a diet with
primarily animal-based protein sources helps to do
the following: Maintain your dog's muscle mass
Reverse some age-related changes in skeletal muscles
in senior dogs Enhance the long-term health and
well-being of adult and senior dogs The bottom line
is good-quality, meaty dog foods that will have your
dog licking its chops and wagging its tail. At the
same time, you can smile with confidence, knowing
that you've fed your loyal friend what it craves and
what its body needs. |
