  • The above feeding directions are based on an eight-ounce measuring cup. One measuring cup contains approximately 3.3 ounces (94 grams) of Exclusive® Chicken & Rice Large Breed Puppy Formula.
  • The amount provided to your puppy may vary depending upon age, sex, breed, activity level and environment. Adjust the amount fed to maintain ideal body condition.
  • Puppies will begin to eat small amounts of solid dog food at three to four weeks of age. Provide a constant supply of moistened Exclusive® Chicken & Rice Large Breed Puppy Formula until your puppies are fully weaned (six to eight weeks of age). After this, the puppy food can be fed moistened or dry. Continue to keep the bowl filled at all times or schedule feedings three times a day up to 6 months of age and twice a day from seven to twenty four months (served the same time each day). Large Breed Puppies may be transitioned at 12 months of age to Exclusive® Chicken & Rice Large Breed Adult Formula while Giant Breeds (weighing over 90 lbs. at maturity) should be transitioned at 24 months of age. Consult your veterinarian regularly to help maintain ideal body condition.
  • When changing your dog's diet, do so gradually over a 7 to 10 day period to avoid an upset stomach.
  • Provide fresh, clean water at all times.
