What this means for the bowl
Lily's Kitchen Puppy Recipe with Chicken sits in the middle of the 21 wet dog foods we track, at 910 kcal per kg.
To show how much the food matters: a 7 kg puppy needs about 602 kcal a day. That is 4 ½ × 150 g tray of this food, but 1 × 390 g carton of Skinner's Puppy & Junior Chicken & Garden Veg and 8 × 100 g pouch of Pedigree Adult Pouches Mixed Selection in Gravy. Same dog, same day, very different bowls.
Wet food is mostly water. Gram for gram, the average dry dog food in our list has about 4.1 times the calories of this one, which is why the wet portion looks so much bigger.
Puppies need about three times their resting energy until 4 months, then about twice. Weigh weekly, because the portion changes as they grow.
