Feeding Guide
Your dog is unique, and his feeding requirements will vary with his age, activity and environment. That’s why we suggest starting with the guides below, and then monitoring his weight and adjusting portions as needed.

Ideally, feed your adult dog in two feeds per day rather than just one, especially for large breeds. However, be vigilant with the amount of food you give them.

Feed puppies from 6 weeks onwards, 3 times per day until the age of 6 months, then reduce to twice per day.

We recommend you try to feed your dog at the same time each day.

Please ensure a supply of fresh drinking water at all times. All recommended feeding amounts are in grams per day.

This food is recommended for puppies until they are approximately 12 months old. At this age, your dog is fully developed and requires a balanced diet tailored towards adult dogs.

Amounts recommended above are total daily amounts: 

•     We recommend that puppies 1-6 months are given a minimum of three feeds per day. Provide one third in the morning, one third at lunch, and one third in the evening.
• We recommend that puppies 6-12 months are given a minimum of two feeds per day. Provide half in the morning, and half in the evening.
• Pour the correct amount of Leader into your dog’s bowl.
• Leader may be fed either wet or dry.
• If feeding wet, use 1 part water to 2 parts feed.
• Use lukewarm (not boiling) water.
• Feed should be fed within 30 minutes of preparation if fed wet.

Amounts provided in this chart are recommended guidelines and should be adjusted depending on your puppy's individual needs. If your puppy appears overweight, you may need to feed slightly less than the guideline amount.

Similarly, if your puppy appears underweight, you may need to feed slightly more. Monitor your puppy's body weight regularly and adjust the feeding amount as required.
