batches, just like you'd bake at home. This gentle process protects the vitamins and minerals
and maintains the integrity of the ingredients while enhancing the aroma and taste. Ask your dog!

| Feeding Notes |
| Puppies: Puppies are growing! They need to eat up to
twice as much as adult dogs until they're full grown, which is typically 1 year, but can be
longer for large breed dogs.
As a general rule, feed your puppy 3 times a day,
and allow them to eat for 10 minutes at each feeding. Small breed puppies prefer to eat frequently;
very small breeds prefer to have food always available.
|
| Reproduction: Provide increasing amounts of food the latter half of pregnancy.
The amount may be twice the normal food intake. Feed to consumption during nursing.
|
| Feed less! Baked food is denser than other pet foods; you'll typically feed 25% less.
If your dog has loose stool, you may be overfeeding. Please refer to the feeding guidelines,
and try feeding slightly less.
|
| The Feeding Guideline above is a starting point. Please adjust the feeding amount as necessary to maintain the optimum body weight for your dog. We recommend that you weigh your dog weekly. |
| New to this food? Please transition your pet.
Some dogs may do better by making a gradual transition over 7 to 10 days. Start with 25% of the new food mixed with 75% of the previous diet,
and gradually increase the new while decreasing the previous until the transition is complete.
Sudden diet change may cause loose stool or stomach discomfort.
Typically, a gradual transition is not necessary when changing to another Pinto Canyon food
because all of our foods are similar in quality and the cooking process.
|
|
| Clean water bowls daily. Have clean bowls of cool, fresh water available at all times. |
| Store your food in a cool and dry location. |
