If the puppy weighs 4 kg (25% of the adult weight), the daily requirement will be approximately 415 g SPECIFIC TM CPW Puppy All Breeds. When it weighs 8 kg (50% of the adult weight), the puppy requires approximately 590 g a day. When it weighs 12 kg (75% of the adult weight), the puppy requires approximately 655 g a day. During lactation the energy requirement depends on the number of puppies. For 2, 4 and 8 puppies, the increase in the energy requirement is 1.5, 2 and 3 times the requirement of a normal adult dog. The daily individual requirement may vary depending on factors such as breed, environment, season, activity etc. It is therefore advisable to continue monitoring condition and body weight, adjusting the amount fed accordingly.

£ For puppies of small and medium-sized breeds, SPECIFIC TM CPW Puppy All Breeds is a very suitable diet for feeding from weaning (5-6 weeks) until the puppies have reached 80% of their adult weight. From that point, the puppy can be gradually introduced to SPECIFIC TM CXD Adult Small Breed/CXD Adult Medium Breed/CXW Adult All Breeds. £ During pregnancy and lactation , the energy and nutrient requirements in bitches increase. Therefore, SPECIFIC TM CPW Puppy All Breeds is a suitable diet for pregnant and lactating bitches of all breeds.

£ It is important to monitor the growth of the puppy carefully to avoid overfeeding.

£ The energy and nutrient requirements may be increased during recovery from surgery, trauma and anorexia. CPW Puppy All Breeds is very suitable as a diet during these periods of high energy requirement.
