Feeding Adult Dogs
The recommended feeding amounts are based on using a standard 8 oz/250 ml measuring cup which contains approximately 106 g of Purina Beneful Prime. 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 be 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 Tip
When switching your dog to Beneful Prime dog food, please allow 7 - 10 days for the transition. Gradually add more Beneful Prime 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.
Provide adequate fresh water in a clean container daily.
For your pet’s health, see your veterinarian regularly.
