Feeding Guidelines
Suitable for All Life Stages
All of CountryPet Naturals recipes are formulated to offer a 100% complete and balanced diet for dogs or cats of all life stages, as set out by the Association of American Feed Control Officials (AAFCO). In fact, our recipes not only meet, but exceed the AAFCO standards. This means that everything your dog needs to lead a normal and healthy life is included in our food.
Serving Instructions
Serve as a complete and balanced meal, or mix in with your dog’s current food. Depending on the age, condition and activity level of your dog, the feeding guidelines will need to be adjusted.
For puppies, feed up to twice the normal adult requirement in two or three feedings. For pregnant or lactating females, offer up to three times the normal amount of food. Provide fresh water at all times.
