Frequently asked questions

How is the daily ration determined?

The daily ration is based on your dog's weight, activity level, and the kibble range. More active dogs generally need more food, while different ranges have varying energy densities, affecting the recommended amount.

Can I use this for a puppy?

This calculator is designed for adult dogs. Puppies have different nutritional needs and growth patterns, so it's best to consult your veterinarian for a suitable feeding plan.

Does the budget include treats or supplements?

No, the budget focuses solely on kibble. Treats, supplements, and other extras are not included, so you may need to adjust your overall budget accordingly.
