When raising Samoyed dogs, many dog owners have a headache: "How much dog food is suitable for Samoyed dogs?" Some people say that a cup of dog food is enough for a dog to eat, but the size of the cup is not limited! Don’t be impatient, here is a simple way to estimate how your dog eats dog food.
Samoyed Dog (confirmed introduction)
1. The estimation formula of dog food feeding is generally based on the dosage on the label on the back of the dog food, but how do they determine the amount on the label? In fact, all dog food is based on a Calorie estimation method to determine the amount of feeding, the method is as follows: If a one-year-old Samoyed weighs 33 kilograms, then the calories it needs throughout the day are estimated as follows:
1. Divide the dog’s Body weight (kg) is calculated 3 times (33x33x33=35937)
2. Then open the end of 1. to the root number (=189.57)
3. Then 2. Cut-off number (=13.76)
4. If the cut-off number of 3. is taken as 125 (=1720), then the calories needed by the Samoyed dog throughout the day is 1720 calories. (If you have some overweight or unathletic dogs, you need to change the number 125 to 100.) After you get the correct number of calories, you need to count the calories in a cup of dog food that your dog eats. For example, a cup of eight-ounce measuring cups (about the size of a common household rice cup) that dogs eat now has 550 calories. Divide 1,720 by 550, and that’s probably just over three cups a day.
2. If you find it too troublesome to use formulas to calculate, then you can refer to the label on the back of the dog food. If you don’t know it or are too lazy to estimate, you can also directly refer to the label on the back of the dog food to determine the dog’s food. number of meals. For example, the label on the dog food for Guanneng puppies reads as follows:
Toy dogs: such as sausages, Pekingese dogs (adult body weight 1.3-5.5KG), 56-75 grams/day (1.5- 3 months), 75-112 grams/day (4-5 months), 56-112 grams/day (6-8 months), 112-140 grams/day (9-10 months), feeding crown can become Dog food (1-2 years)
