Feeding Guidelines
Each dogĀ has different needs so this is a guide only. The amount of food needed is dependent on the energy requirement of each dog.Ā Active or Working dogs require more energy, and therefore more food. Puppies and lactating females will need to be fed more as their energy and nutritional needs are greater.Ā Ā Always check with your vet first whether ZealĀ® is suitable for your puppies, pregnant or lactating female dogs, or dogs with certain health problems.Ā If you are unsure of how much to feed your pet for any reason, such as being overweight or too thin, please check with your vet.
ZealĀ® Soft and Dry kibbleĀ is suitable for all life stages of your dog.
Changing to ZealĀ® Soft Dry Dog Food should be done gradually, mixing in with your dog’s current food type in increasing amounts for the first week.
A mix of dry and wet food is a good option for pets, as by mixing a small amount of wet food into your dogās dry food, it will help make mealtime more exciting. It will not only satisfy their hunger, it will alsoĀ satisfy their taste buds. Furthermore, the dry food will play its role, aiding nutrition, digestion (chewing) and teeth cleaning, and the wet food will play an equally nutritious role providing a small amount of nutrients while satisfying the senses of our furry friends. Always ensure adequate fresh drinking water or ZealĀ® Pet Milk is freely available to your pet.
The suggested daily feeding guide below is based on a typical adult dog eating dry kibbleĀ only. If your dog is overweight, choose the ideal weight he/she should be at and follow that as a suggested amount to feed.Ā If you feed your dog twice a day, split the amount between meals.
Key:
cup size = volume 250 ml / cup =Ā approximately 100 grams of kibble
Adult dog weight – cups per day = grams per day
2.5 kg (5.5 lb) weight –Ā 2/3 cupsĀ = 60 g
5 kg (11 lb) weight – 3/4 cups = 80 g
7.5 kg (16.5 lb)Ā weight –Ā 1 cup =Ā 100 g
10 kg (22 lb) weightĀ –Ā 1 1/4 cups = 125 g
15 kg (33 lb ) weightĀ –Ā 1 2/3 cups = 165 g
20 kg (44 lb) weightĀ –Ā 2 cups =Ā Ā 200 g
25 kg (55 lb) weightĀ –Ā 2 1/2 cups = 255 g
30 kg (66 lb) weightĀ –Ā 3 cups = 290 g
35 g (77 lb) weightĀ –Ā 3 1/4 cups = 325 g
40 kg (88 lb) weightĀ –Ā 3 1/2 cups = 350 g
45 kg (99 lb) weight – 3 3/4 cups = 380 g

ZEALĀ® 100% Pure Natural pet treatsĀ are wholesome, trustworthy and traceable to source.Ā We have on offer 21 varieties ofĀ delicious treats to choose from, 6 varieties of which cats love too. Our treats are handmade at our Auckland factory from premium New Zealand free range meats and wild caught seafood. Absolutely NO colourings, flavours, additives or preservatives are used in the manufacturing process. Treat your pet with a tasty and healthy source of nutrients.
What kind of treats are suitable for your breed, size and age of dog or cat? We recommend that your pet consumes treats under supervision, especially when trying out a new treat. Many dogs are inclined to want to wolf down a treat without even chewing so watch over all sizes and ages until you are sure they can manage without choking incidents. Cats generally will gnaw on a treat withoutĀ trying to consume it in seconds. Smaller dogs naturally may find shanks bones etc a little large, and large pooches may try to gobble medium size harder treats without chewing, older petsĀ with dental problems would need a softer chew, so itās a matter of judging on your petās size and eating behaviours.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Keep the pouched product zip-locked for freshness. If buying bulk bags, keep the unused product in an airtight container for freshness and hygiene.
Benefits
Pet Oral and Dental HygieneĀ is so important for your pets. Theyāre unable to tell us when theyāre in pain so checking their gums and teeth regularly is important. Chewing on ZealĀ® Pet Treat will help to remove plaque and tartar. Brushing your petās teeth regularly is a good idea too!
Treats for use in training sessions:Ā Treats are a useful tool in the process of training because they helps to keep your petĀ concentrated on you and the learning process, whatever age they are. For training purposes, treats should ideally be small and easily swallowed, needing little chewing so you can reward behaviours quickly and often. Perfect treats for training are relatively soft and about the size of a pea. PetsĀ arenāt overly concerned about the size of the treat, itās the quantity that impresses them. Bigger treats are more suitable for good behaviour rewards , such as chunkyĀ pieces, as your petĀ has to stop, chew and take time to eat it.
How to use dog treats most effectively:Ā The most effective way to use treats is to reinforce a calm, submissive state. Never use treats to reward an excited, over-stimulated state of mind. Always let yourĀ pet smell the treat first, but hold it up away from them and wait. Remember pets, especially dogs, can smell from over 5 metres plus away so you donāt have to put the treat under their nose. Once they have the scent, dogs mayĀ initially jump around, and even jump on you. If this happens, indicate that you donāt approve with your attitude and body language, your patience as an owner will pay off in a well-behaved pet. TheyĀ will figure out that the cool calm approach delivers results, sitting and waiting while looking at you in quiet anticipation. At the moment of calm, give them the treat. Donāt use treats to reinforce an excited pet, but rather to command the calm, submissive state.
Feeding Guidelines
Although it may be tempting when your furry significant other begs for more, donāt be over generous and keep treats regulated. Treats are meant to be supplemental to your petās diet. As with us, too many treats may cause weight gain and it will also upset the balance of your pets diet, which must be complete and balanced to keep them healthy. Ideally treats per day should not be more than 10% of your petsĀ daily required calories, so do reduce regular meal portions to avoid weight gain, taking into consideration what they have eaten treat wise throughout training sessions in a day. This also applies to treats given as general rewards for good behaviour. If you donāt do this, your petĀ will slowly gain weight and excess kilos carried above the ideal are bad for your petās health.
Treat Wise :Ā We always recommend that your pet consumes treats under supervision, especially when trying out a new treat. Some dogs (unusual for cats) are over āzealousāĀ when it comes to tasty morsels and may not chew properly, resulting a possible choking situation.
When to give treats to your pet :Ā In between meals is the ideal time to give treats and not immediately before or after a meal. Choose a treat that your pet will enjoy. If you are using treats as a training tool, your treat wonāt work as well right after your petĀ has had a full meal.

Treats in the feline world: Ā Cats are somewhat more independent than dogs as a rule, soĀ training with regard to tricks isn’t generally the norm. However treats canĀ work in terms of teaching positive behaviours because they help to keep your petĀ concentrated on you and the learning process. Cats can also be encouraged to walk on a lead with the right encouragement. Ā Treats are also really great to keepĀ entertained, especiallyĀ when they are alone for long periods, tuck them into puzzle feeders or even just hiddenĀ around the house for them to stalk and scavenge at their leisure.
