Practical Feeding Guidelines
Meal Frequency
Feed 2-3 small meals per day to maintain stable blood sugar levels.
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 Welsh Terrier needs approximately 10–20 oz of water daily.
Weight Monitoring
Weigh your Welsh Terrier monthly and adjust portions accordingly. Ideal body condition means you can feel (but not see) the ribs.
