Amounts are recommended for Adult dogs with moderate levels of activity and no adverse weather conditions. These are guidelines and should be adjusted as needed to maintain optimum body condition.
Puppies: Puppies will typically start nibbling moistened dog foods at 3 - 4 weeks of age. Feed as much as the puppy will clean up in 20 minutes in 4 feedings intervals throughout the day. You may mix with water, broth, or milk at a ratio near 3 parts food and 1 part liquid. Do not leave moistened food out for more than 30 minutes to ensure product freshness. Puppies will be weaned from milk by 8 weeks of age. Continue to feed up to 4 times per day, and within a few months, the puppies can be transitioned to a self - feeder until about 1 year of age. At this point feed so as to maintain good body condition using the feeding chart as a guide.
Pregnant and Nursing: Energy requirements are continually changing during stages of gestation and lactation and may require up to 4 times recommended levels of intake to maintain good body condition. Feed an amount needed to maintain good body condition of your female dog.

A must try! The best for my babies.
By Ashley on Jun 4, 2020
After rotating through so many high end reasonably priced foods this is the food I always find my way back to. My kids range from 5lbs all the way up to 120lbs and they love it. Never needed to add any wet food or toppers of any kind. One is allergic to chicken and grains and most limited ingredient foods don't sell big enough bags to last long for my 4 babies. Since I have 2 of em that are Great Pyrenees they need something with vitamins for their joints and this has everything that fits their needs. The bites are small enough for my picky Toy Poodle. Can't go wrong with Victor. Only made a switch due to dropped prices on other healthy foods. Never switching again.

Great food
By Stuka on Aug 4, 2020
It took awhile for my picky eater to adjust but he loves this food. I used to make him homemade food but Covid hit and food supply was limited. I wanted a clean and healthy food for him from a company that didn't have a history of recalls. His coat looks amazing and he is one healthy boy. So glad I found this company!

Big, beautiful, smart and loyal.
By MyRuger on Jun 5, 2020
My boy Ruger has been on the food since he came home. He is 3 yrs old and tops out around 100lbs. He gained his weight at a steady pace as he grew. Bone structure is solid. He is muscular and has a thick shiny coat. Smart as can be. I contribute some of his qualities to breeding, some to training, and also his nutrition. Nutrition is very important to the growth and health of every living thing. You wouldn’t cheap out on your child, so don’t do it to you fur baby.

Great dog food for GSD!
By MooseMom on Apr 3, 2020
We have a rescue shepherd that we have been feeding Victor food to for over a year. He was 11 months when we got him, now he is just over 2. He was super thin when we got him, but now he is filled out and at a perfect weight. He's healthy, looks great, stool is good, even his fur looks nice. The Moose however, has to have some meat added to eat his kibble before he eats it. We aren't complaining, because so far so good! Nice job Victor!

Horrible smell
By Riley on Apr 4, 2020
Had to change kibbles for my dog because Chewy did not have foresight for auto ship orders. This new product reeks and if I didn't have enough of the previous kibbles, not sure he would eat this by itself. On a positive side though, my 11 yr old is actually playing with his toys. So if he eats Victor by itself in a week, might be a good thing in itself and I will just have wear a mask when I feed him.

Cannot recommend enough
By 5stars on Apr 18, 2020
I switched from TOTW to Victor after learning my golden had osteosarcoma (bone cancer). She was given 2-3 months to live. We're now 8 months past that... the only thing we changed was her dog food. I am a firm believer the switch to Victor has a lot to do with her beating the odds. I am a customer for life!

I really like it. Dogs do well on it
By Allison on Mar 16, 2020
I'm feeding this to 5 dogs. All different breeds (Lab, GSP, Aussie, Pointer mix, GSD) and ages. Youngest is 9 months and the oldest is 12 years. All of them are doing very well on it. It keeps them slim and energetic. I love that there is added glucosamine for my older dogs! Only downside is the price but for 50lbs I can't really complain. It's hard to find brands who sell 50lb bags anymore.
