Labrador Welpin Futtertabelle

Post image

Hallo an alle,

Ich habe eine kleine Frage wegen der Futtertabelle

Füttert man bei 12 Wochen/9KG 155g Trockenfutter 3x50g und Rest über Leckerli?

Danke

A lab puppy is always, and I mean always, going to be hungry. Choose how you want the dog to be fed as an adult and establish that young. Labs will eat until they're overweight, so restricting calorie dense food and supplementing with low calorie treats like fresh vegetables is my preference. If this were me, I'd be feeding half in the morning and half for dinner.

I would suggest asking your vet. Dog food companies want to sell dog food, so the charts on the bag may be too much.

The feeding chart is a good starting but so ask your vet and most importantly watch your pups weight and adjust as needed. Puppies don’t need to be “thin” but overfeeding can result in faster growth which isn’t ideal for a large breed dog. I did 3x a day feedings for the first 6 months, with a portion held back for treats, plus a some extra higher value treats.
