Feed 2 measured meals per day — morning and evening works best.
Portion Control
Always measure portions with a kitchen scale or measuring cup. Treats should not exceed 10% of daily calories.
Hydration
Ensure fresh water is always available. A Spanish Water Dog needs approximately 20–40 oz of water daily.
Weight Monitoring
Weigh your Spanish Water Dog monthly and adjust portions accordingly. Ideal body condition means you can feel (but not see) the ribs.
