Earthborn Holistic® Primitive Natural™ Dog Food: Feeding Guidelines

To control your dog’s food intake, we suggest you use the chart below as a guide. Adjust amounts accordingly over time. These portions are averages; portions will vary by the age, activity, size, and temperament of your dog.

When introducing Earthborn Holistic® Primitive Natural™ dog food, mix increasing amounts of Primitive Natural™ with decreasing amounts of the old food over a one-week period.

During gestation and lactation, feed two to three times as much food as recommended in the Daily Feeding Guide for the weight of your adult dog.

Puppies start to eat solid foods at three to four weeks of age and should have free access to solid food from that time until weaning. You may keep Earthborn Holistic® Primitive Natural™ dog food before your at all times. Most will satisfy their nutritional needs as their appetites dictate.
