NUTRO™ Dry Dog Food

Dry dog food, or kibble, offers several benefits for dogs and dog owners alike, including:  

• Nutrition: Quality dry dog food provides your dog with wholesome grains, fatty acids, protein sources, and other nutrients they need for healthy energy.  
• Oral care: The crunchy texture of the kibble helps clean teeth and reduce plaque buildup.
• Convenience: To serve dry dog food, simply scoop out the right amount and dump it into a bowl.  
• Easy storage: Dry dog food has a longer shelf life and can be kept for up to two months without losing nutritional value or going stale, as long as it is properly stored in an airtight container.  

Your dog’s nutritional needs depend on their breed, activity level, and body weight. For instance, an English Mastiff will eat more than a Chihuahua. Likewise, an active dog will consume more food than an inactive one.

As a general rule, your dog should eat enough food to maintain a healthy body condition. You don’t want to feed them too much or too little.  

The best way to determine how much food your dog needs is to consult your veterinarian and follow the feeding guidelines on the dog food packaging.  

For example, according to the NUTRO™ NATURAL CHOICE™ Adult Dry Dog Food, Beef & Brown Rice Recipe package, a 15-pound dog should get 1 to 1¼ cups of food per day.

Start with the recommended amount but monitor your dog’s condition and adjust their portion size as needed.

Each bag will list an expiration date. Check that date before purchasing to know how long your specific bag will last.  

Once opened, dry dog food should be consumed within two months for optimal freshness and nutritional value. But you need to store it properly during this time.  

Store dry dog food in a cool (less than 80 degrees), dry place. It’s best to keep the food in its original bag or container and secure it tightly after each feeding. This makes the UPC code, lot number, brand and manufacturer, and "best by" date easily accessible if needed.

If you want to store dry pet food in another storage container, put the entire bag into the container rather than pour the kibble directly into it. Make sure to use a container that’s clean, dry, and has an airtight lid. You’ll also need to thoroughly wash and dry the container before refilling it when one bag of kibble runs out.

Yes, you can mix wet and dry NUTRO™ dog food. When you offer both to your dog, you give them the best of both worlds! They get increased moisture content, rich flavor, and variety of wet food, along with the dental benefits of dry dog food.  

When feeding both types of food, you can mix them in a single bowl to create a tasty meal for your dog or alternate between wet and dry food throughout the week.  

No matter which method you choose, pay attention to the serving size recommendations for each type of food. Since wet food contains more moisture, the caloric and nutrient content differs from dry food.  

Be sure to adjust portion sizes as needed to maintain a healthy balance for your dog’s diet.  

We believe that simple is best. We choose high-quality, nutritious ingredients in eight categories for every single bag of our dry dog food. These ingredients include:  

• Protein
• Carbohydrates
• Fiber
• Fats and oils
• Vitamins
• Minerals
• Amino Acids
