You’re eyeballing their food and wondering why their weight keeps swinging.
Here’s the truth: guessing portions is the fastest way to an unhealthy weight.
Here’s how to get it right:
1. Find their ideal daily amount (check the food bag or ask your vet)
2. Measure every meal with a proper scoop, not a mug or your hand
3. Track their body condition weekly – you should feel their ribs without pressing hard
4. Adjust portions if they’re gaining or losing, not the food itself
Consistent portions = stable weight = a happier, healthier dog.
Save this so you’ve got it when you need it.
