How To See Your Dogs Portion Recommendation

View Your Dog’s Portion Size and Calorie Information

Updated over 2 weeks ago

Ensuring your dog consumes the correct amount of food daily is integral to their health and wellbeing. Butternut Box offers tailored feeding recommendations based on your dog's weight, activity level, and other specific parameters.

You can see exactly how much your dog is recommended per day and how many of their daily calories their Butternut is filling.

On the app or the website, click “My dogs”. Scroll down and you’ll see “His/Her Daily Portion”.

Once you click this you’ll see a breakdown of how much of their daily calories is filled by the current pouch size of Butternut that they’re getting. If you have multiple dogs, you’ll need to click on each dog individually to see their portion size.

Meal portions for your dog depend on the following factors:

  1. Weight: Larger dogs typically need more food.

  2. Activity Level: More active dogs usually require additional calories.

  3. Life Stage: Puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs have varying nutritional and caloric needs.

  4. Dietary Restrictions: Dogs with specific health conditions or dietary restrictions might require a customised meal plan.

Regularly monitor your dog's weight and activity levels to ensure they are receiving the appropriate amount of food. Updating their profile in the Butternut Box app allows for accurate portion recommendations based on their current needs.

Please Note: If you have more than one dog on your account, our system will suggest how much each dog needs based on your current plan size or pouch size.
