Directions:
Divide the daily feeding amount into three or more feedings.
Determine the amount to be fed to the puppy at each feeding using the weight chart provided. Reconstitute powder by using 3 parts water to one part water (use included measuring device for accuracy) for the first few days. This will make a thin gruel. Offer only small amount and remove the uneaten portion within 2 hours. As puppies grow, decrease the amount of water mixed with the powder until weaning food is an oatmeal consistency. Fresh, clean water should always be available for drinking.
