How Much Wolfworthy Should You Feed Your Mixed Breed Puppy?
Updated
The amount of Wolfworthy Original 80/20 or Oily Fish your puppy needs depends on its Expected Adult Weight. If you're unsure, here’s how to estimate it:
How to Estimate Your Puppy’s Expected Adult Weight
1️⃣ Check the Parents’ Weight
- If you know the weight of both parents, take the average.
- Example: If the mother is 8kg and the father is 12kg, a good starting point would be a 10kg adult weight.
- Use this estimated weight to check the Wolfworthy Puppy Feeding Guide.
2️⃣ Use Age & Current Weight (For Medium & Large Breeds)
- Most medium-sized dogs are about ⅔ of their adult size by 6 months.
- Formula:
(Current weight ÷ 2) × 3 = Expected Adult Weight- Example: A 6-month-old puppy weighing 10kg will likely reach 15kg as an adult.
3️⃣ Adjust for Small & Large Breeds
- Small breed dogs (e.g. Jack Russells, Miniature Poodles) reach adult weight faster, often by 6-8 months.
- Large & giant breeds (e.g. Labradors, Great Danes) grow more slowly and may not fully mature until 18-24 months.
- Keep in mind that males are often larger than females in many breeds.
What if You Don’t Know Your Puppy’s Breed?
If you don’t know your puppy’s breed or expected size, here’s what to do:
✅ Weigh your puppy now and estimate using their age.
- Example: A 3-month-old puppy weighing 4kg may reach 16kg as an adult.
- Use the Wolfworthy Feeding Chart for this weight.
✅ Watch their body condition.
- If they’re looking too lean, increase the food slightly.
- If they seem too heavy, reduce the portion.
- Soft stools? This can mean overfeeding—reduce the amount slightly until stools firm up.
