Feeding

# Feeding your Greek Harehound well

Greece

A traditional or industrial diet may suit it if it is of good quality and covers all of its nutritional needs. The daily ration must be adapted to its sustained activity.

A menu for every age

## Their needs change as they grow

- Puppy: Growth food adapted to the expected size, divided into three meals, without unnecessary calcium supplementation.
- Adult: Controlled ration in two meals, adjusted to ideal weight and actual activity.
- Senior: Digestible food, possibly less energy-dense, with joint and dental monitoring.

Which food?

## Kibble, wet food, or homemade meals?

A balanced traditional diet or a quality industrial diet, complete and suited to its age, its weight and its activity level.

Portion sizes

## How much should you feed?

The quantity must be adjusted to the weight, age, body condition and the dog's expenditure, then distributed regularly throughout the day.

| Weight | Daily amount | Meals per day |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 17 - 18 kg | 310 - 425 g | 2 |
| 18 - 19 kg | 326 - 447 g | 2 |
| 19 - 20 kg | 342 - 469 g | 2 |

Changing food

## How to switch foods successfully

Any change of food must be gradual over seven to ten days, gradually increasing the proportion of the new food to limit digestive upsets.

Hydration

## Don't overlook water

Fresh, clean water must remain available at all times. Needs increase with heat, exertion and a dry diet. Take water along on walks and offer regular breaks.

A little extra

## Treats in moderation

Treats remain occasional and represent less than 10% of the daily energy intake. They are deducted from the ration in order to avoid weight gain.

Good habits

## Make mealtimes count

- Divide the food into 2 meals per day, ideally one in the morning and one in the evening.
- Let the dog eat in peace.
- Avoid any intense physical activity in the hour preceding the meal.
- Avoid any intense physical activity in the hour following the meal.

### Never feed these foods

Chocolate, grapes, xylitol, onion, garlic, alcohol, caffeine, macadamia nuts, cooked bones and very fatty or very salty foods are dangerous for dogs. In case of ingestion, contact a veterinarian quickly.
