Canine Macronutrient Balance Guidelines

A balanced adult dog diet requires a precise split of protein, fat, carbohydrates, and minerals. According to AAFCO standards:

Protein: Minimum 18% dry matter. Essential for cell regeneration, enzymes, and muscular health.
Fat: Minimum 5.5% dry matter. Provides highly concentrated energy and essential fatty acids.
Minerals (Calcium & Phosphorus): Crucial for skeletal density. A standard homemade recipe requires a calcium-to-phosphorus ratio of roughly 1.2:1.

Our nutrition calculator uses USDA food nutrient profiles to estimate raw yields. Keep in mind that cooking processes can leach water-soluble vitamins, so adding a dog-safe multivitamin or supplement is highly recommended for long-term feeding.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this replace veterinary advice?

No. This tool is designed to give you a quick estimate of calorie and macro levels. A vet nutritionist should review any recipe intended as the sole, long-term diet for a dog, especially puppies.

Why are raw and cooked weights different?

Meat shrinks during cooking as moisture and fat render out. This database utilizes USDA cooked weights for meat to match actual weight in the bowl. Weigh all protein after cooking for accuracy.
