I have given my Yellow Lab this food starting when he was 8 weeks now 9 months. recommended daily intake is listed on packaging. roughly follow it, matching with activity levels. my lab has a perfect lab weight, no health issues, no allergies and great coat. dog is active and runs about in lawn and local dog parks. I do give primal wet food along with perfect dog with every 2-3 days a boiled egg for lunch. 3 times a day orijen for meals till 6 mponth and after 6 months twice a day. unless your dog has some genetic issue - expect great outcome for your dog with orijen food.
