The great thing is that preventative nutrition can start at any time once your dog is fully grown.  

Again, you’ll notice our bags call out ‘7+’, and when you turn them over, you’ll see that there are carefully constructed feeding guides which start at seven years of age, and change in meal size recommendations after 12 years of age.  

 

 

Be sure to remember that feeding guidelines are just that… guides which help you make proactive decisions, and take advantage of the window of opportunity to help your dog with nutrition as it ages.
