Puppies can begin nibbling on moistened Natural
Balance® Organic Formulas Dry Dog Food before
they are weaned. From six weeks to six months, feed
three times a day. You may want to add a small amount
of Natural Balance® Ultra Premium Canned Dog
Food for ease of feeding. The amount of canned dog
food can be gradually decreased as the puppy matures.
After six months, it is recommended to feed twice
daily.

We recommend that you do not add vitamins, minerals
or any other supplements, except upon the advice
of a veterinarian. The maintenance of proper body
weight is most important for your dogs health.
Consult your veterinarian for specific weight recommendations
for your dog. Remember, fresh clean water should
be available at all times! |
|
|
The
Adult Adult dogs should be fed either once or twice
per day. When you first start feeding Natural Balance®
Organic Formulas, we suggest to start with the amounts
recommended in the Table. Energy requirements vary with
environmental conditions, temperature and activity of
your dog. The amount of food should always be adjusted
to suit your dogs needs.
Pregnant
Females (See Our Feeding
Page for More Details!)
Minimal increase needed during first 6 weeks.
Weeks 7, 8, & 9 increase up to 25%.
Lactating
Females (See Our Feeding
Page for More Details!)
Immediately after whelping, the nutritional demand increases
by 50% compared to maintenance levels. Feed in 3 equal
meals per day.
Working
Dogs Based on the work your dog will be asked to
perform, the nutritional requirements will vary accordingly.
As the work load increases, the demand for protein and
fat increases proportionally. Dogs in hard training
will generally require twice the maintenance levels.
The
Older Dog As your dog begins to age, his energy
expenditure will decrease. Decreasing the amount of
food accordingly will allow for the maintenance of proper
body weight for less active dog. |

FEEDING
MANAGEMENT |
| We
recommend that you do not add vitamins, minerals or
any other supplements, except upon the advice of a veterinarian.
When switching your dog's diet, the change should be
made gradually, by replacing the current food with increasing
portions of Natural Balance Organic Formulas® dog
food. The change should be completed after 3 to 5 days.
The maintenance of proper body weight is most important
for your dog's health. Consult your veterinarian for
specific weight recommendations for your dog. Remember,
fresh clean water should be available at all times!

| I
have been using your food for the last 6 months. I use
the Natural Balance® Organic
Formula for my standard poodles; they are very
active and have very sensitive stomachs. I really like
this food, as I am just getting started in showing and
breeding my standards and I am very happy with the results
of this food. I am a groomer and have recommended this
for to my clients whose dogs need to be on this food.
Keep up the good work - great food. I have one client
whose boxer shed alot had skin problems - pads were cracking
bad. I told them to try this food for their dog, and they
have been using it for a month. I asked them how she was
doing and they said 'what a change, way less shedding,
no scratching and biting , pads look real good!' Don't
change a thing! Thank
you for caring, Judith White |
We've
tried various brands of dog food for our Barnabas and
never have we seen him stay at his bowl to eat the whole
amount given to him until we started him on your Natural
Balance® Organic Formula. We've also noted
a cessation in his skin rashes and scratching, though
we have not actually had any diagnosis for allergies,
things cleared up anyway. We have to attribute this improvement
to his diet change because he hasn't had any other changes
to his routine or environment. We deeply appreciate the
care that Natural Balance® puts into their pet food
and the steps taken to ensure the safety of their product
for our furry family member. Huge
thanks and loyalty, Jim and Barnabas |
| I
am so happy to have the choice of Organic in the Natural
Balance dog food realm, my dogs love it! The smell of
the kibble alone is pure and healthy! I think going organic
is the absolute necessary future of all food, human as
well as pets, and it makes me feel especially safe about
my choice of pet food. I hope that soon you will come
out with one for cats? Vivienne |
I
would like to say that I have had my dog Rocky a Yorkshire
Terrier for going on 2 years now, and I have tried so
many different high quality brands of food but none
compares to your food. I noticed you carried an Organic
formula and Rocky is my baby so I want nothing but the
best for him. So I feed him the Natural Balance®
Organic Formula and he is a very happy
camper. I also feed him the wet food from time to time
to give him a variety he loves the Chicken and
the Beef Canned Formula of the wet food. So
overall I would just like to say that I am so happy
that your products are in the market because I would
never feed my Rocky nothing that was not good for him.
Your products are great they look good and smell good
and he also loves your Roll Around Treats,
overall your products are great and I will definitely
recommend them to all my friends that are pet owners.
Thank
you, Elisandra Castro |
| I
am the proud owner of a beautiful and very affectionate
Italian Greyhound (Karma). On the advice of a fellow
IG owner, we began trying your Organic formula about
5 months ago... we liked the organic ingredients and
the fact that you used no white grain or corn fillers.
Now, IGs are skinny dogs. It always bothered us, however,
that we could see Karma's hipbones so pronounced compared
to other IGs she plays with. I am very happy to say
that after switching her to Natural Balance®
Organic Formulas™, Karma gained the extra
3/4 lb that she had been missing since reaching adulthood.
She eats exactly the same amount per day, but it seems
she draws more nutrition from your formula than she
had with any previous dry food. She is still the same
happy, affectionate girl... but now she looks and seems
healthier, and her coat has a brighter sheen. Thank
you for your dedication to quality, and for helping
to ensure that responsible owners have very excellent
options to offer our furry best friends!

My
dog Tiara used to eat Iams. Well, she really never ate
it. That was the problem. I found out about Natural Balance
when I became a vegan. I was concerned about animal testing
and wanted a dog food that didn't test on animals. I then
found your website and tried Tiara on Natural Balance.
She loved it. I couldn't believe she was eating! She was
always underweight but now she is just fine. I'd like
to thank you for having so many options as well. I was
hoping you all would have a food where the chickens were
free range. And then I found the Natural Balance®
Organic Formulas™ which I bought today.
Thank
you again for having such wonderful products! Christina
