How Much Should I Feed My Dog?
The most accurate way to determine your dog's ideal portion size is to contact the friendly ROAR Pet Food team. They will happily provide personalized guidance tailored to your dog’s specific nutritional needs, recommending both the right recipes and the exact daily amounts.
However, if you are looking for an immediate estimate, our Dog Food Calculator serves as a useful baseline guideline.
How the Dog Food Calculator Works
Unlike generic feeding charts, our calculator uses a precise percentage-of-body-weight calculation to estimate daily food requirements. The calculator dynamically adjusts its recommendations based on two critical factors:
- Life Stage & Age: Supports rapid puppy growth or maintains steady adult weight.
- Activity & Lifestyle: Tailors calories for high-energy working dogs or more sedentary pets.
Important: Check Your Dog’s BMI First
Before using the calculator, we ask that you measure your dog’s Body Mass Index (BMI) Reading. This reading evaluates your dog’s specific breed, weight, and age to analyse their physical frame.
You can determine your pet’s specific score by using the Dog BMI Calculator Tool.
This step helps us determine if your dog has standard dietary needs or requires highly specialised, individual nutrition.
⚠️ Please Note: This calculator is strictly designed for healthy dogs with standard dietary requirements. If the BMI tool indicates that your dog underweight or overweight do not use this calculator. Instead, reach out to our team directly so we can design a safe, custom feeding plan for your pet.

Specialty Dietary Advice Required
Based on the information provided, our standard calculator cannot accurately determine your dog’s feeding plan. Your dog’s unique profile indicates that they require specialised, individual dietary advice to ensure they receive the correct nutrition safely.
