For puppies less than 3 months of age, divide the recommended daily amount of PRO PLAN® Puppy into 3-4 meals moistened. After weaning, feed them as much as needed to support healthy growth, (see recommendation table) but taking care not to allow them to overfeed and become overweight. After 3 months of age gradually reduce moistening. Maintaining a lean body condition during growth is important for healthy skeletal development. As large breed puppies continue to grow, their energy needs will change, so be sure to adjust the amount fed to maintain an ideal body condition. The recommended daily amounts should be adjusted according to weather conditions, the animal's level of activity and it's physical condition. Clean, fresh water should be available at all times. The product should be stored in a dry and clean place at ambient temperature.
