PatiTools estimates for a healthy adult in ideal condition at the breed's typical weight range, normal activity and neutered, using about 3.6 kcal per gram of dry food. Your pet may need more or less: ask your vet.

General guidance, not a clinical standard: we found no veterinary guideline that sets exact minutes. Adjust to your pet's fitness, age and health, and follow your vet's advice.
