Explanation: The formula accounts for your pet's specific nutritional needs based on weight, calorie requirements, and food type to provide optimal feeding recommendations.

A: Portions should be reviewed regularly, especially if your pet's weight, activity level, or health status changes.
Q2: Are these recommendations suitable for all breeds?

Q3: How do I determine my pet's calorie needs?
