All the information you’ll need to make an informed decision appears on the package. We suggest you follow it closely, since the targeted nutritional solutions

Obesity among dogs is a prevalent issue today, as up to 44% of adult dogs are either overweight or obese. To ensure you are feeding the appropriate amount, our
food scientists and nutrition experts have developed precise feeding guidelines designed to provide your dog with the nutrition he needs while maintaining his ideal body weight.
ALL THE ESSENTIAL NUTRIENTS, NONE OF THE EXCESS CALORIES
Because NUTRO® NATURAL CHOICE dog food is so densely packed with nutrients, we recommend you feed less than some other foods – to provide the essential nutrients
your dog needs without adding unnecessary calories.
