Why do small dogs need more calories?
Smaller dog breeds burn energy quicker than larger breeds. On average they require around 88 calories per kg of body weight each day, compared to about 50 calories per kg for larger breeds.
Can I feed my small dog regular adult food?
Technically yes, regular adult food won’t harm small dogs, however the kibble size and nutrient density aren’t as optimised for small dog breeds.
How do I transition my small dog to Calibra food?
Transition to new food slowly as to not cause digestive upset or other issues. Start by mixing the new small dog food with the old food over 5-7 days (25%, 50%, 75%, then 100%). Bear in mind that for sensitive dogs to take it slower and keep an eye out for any cues of discomfort – you know your dog best.
Are there products tailored for small-breed life stages?
Yes, at Calibra, you’ll find options like, junior, adult, and senior small breed formulas created to meet each life stage’s individual nutritional needs.
