reconstituted food feeding guide
1 ounce of freeze-dried food requires 2 ounces of water to reconstitute. Texture will depend
on the amount of time food and water is mixed together. To completely re-hydrate, leave
the food soak in the refrigerator for up to 8 hours
feeding without soaking in water
If you choose not to re-hydrate the food it is very important to have plenty of fresh, clean water available.
** This is only a guide. Optimal feeding amounts may vary based on your dog’s activity level, age, breed, and environment. See your veterinarian for all health-related issues. Standard 8 oz. cup.
Note: Puppies may require up to twice the amounts shown, and nursing/pregnant mothers up to 3 times the amounts shown. Ask your veterinarian if you are unsure.
