Puppies and growth
Start with your fully weaned puppy’s current weight, age in weeks and expected adult weight. PawsMenu calculates NRC energy and protein references for growth. Update the profile as your puppy grows.
AN EASIER EVERYDAY ROUTINE
Today’s ingredients. Today’s needs.
The chicken, meat or fish in your fridge may change, and so may your dog’s age, weight and activity. Pawsmenu helps you plan different menus with suitable ingredients on hand and recalculate quantities for their current needs.
Nutritional calculations for each life stage
Adult life and daily activity
Calculate daily energy needs using your dog’s weight and activity level. Whether life is quieter or more active, the life stage and activity details you select guide the meal quantities.
Pregnancy and developing puppies
Enter the mother’s weight and day of pregnancy. PawsMenu calculates energy and protein references for her profile. The nutrient breakdown does not confirm that all vitamin and mineral needs are met.
Nursing
Enter the mother’s weight, week of lactation and number of puppies. Daily energy requirements are estimated for weeks 1–4 and 1–8 puppies. Daily cooked amount and amount per meal are not calculated because ingredient adequacy for lactation could not be jointly verified.
Later life
Select the senior life stage and enter current weight and activity. Pawsmenu updates the energy and nutrient calculations and shows menu options with revised amounts.
Current weight, current calculation
Use current details for dogs of different breeds, sizes and daily routines. Update the weight after a new weigh-in and let Pawsmenu recalculate daily energy and nutrient targets.
New options with ingredients at home.
You can plan a chicken-based menu today and explore fish or beef another day. Use the preparation method and gram weights listed for the chosen food, and review the energy and nutrient profile of each new combination.
