Feeding Adult Dogs: Most adult dogs can be fed once daily. However, when high activity or other factors create a higher feed intake, twice-a-day feeding is recommended. Dogs should be maintained in ideal body condition and not allowed to become overweight. The food intake required to maintain ideal body condition will vary depending on age, activity and environment. Consequently, the amount of food required for each dog will vary and should be adjusted accordingly.

Feeding Weaning Pups: Start puppies on Beneful Original Dog Food as early as they begin to nibble at solid foods, generally at three to four weeks of age.

Feeding Growing Pups: Feed pups (to six months of age) all of the Beneful Original Dog Food they will consume at intervals throughout the day.

Feeding for Reproduction: Beneful Original Dog Food provides the extra nutrition needed by reproducing females in stages of gestation and lactation. Food consumption may vary during gestation, so feed the amount needed to maintain the pregnant female's good body condition. Food intake may double or even quadruple during lactation

Feeding Tip: When switching to Beneful Original Dog Food, please allow seven to ten days for the transition. Gradually add more Beneful Original Dog Food and less of the previous food to your dog's dish each day until the changeover is complete. This gradual transition will help avoid dietary upsets.
