How We Calculate Your Pup's Portion

Our formula uses the standard veterinary RER/DER method โ€” the same approach veterinarians use to calculate precise nutritional needs.

1
Resting Energy Requirement (RER)

RER = 70 ร— (body weight in kg)0.75

e.g. a 28 lb (12.7 kg) Corgi โ†’ 70 ร— 12.70.75 โ‰ˆ 495 kcal/day RER
2
Life Stage Multiplier (MER)

Daily Energy Requirement = RER ร— life stage multiplier

Puppy (<1 yr)ร— 2.5
Young Adult (1โ€“3 yrs)ร— 1.5
Adult (4โ€“7 yrs)ร— 1.4
Senior (8+ yrs)ร— 1.2
Intact adultร— 1.6
3
Activity Adjustment

Final DER adjusted by activity level

Low activityร— 0.8
Moderate activityร— 1.0
High activityร— 1.2
Working / sportร— 1.4
4
Convert to Pounds (How We Sell It)

Harvest Hounds fresh food โ‰ˆ 450 kcal per pound (~0.99 kcal/gram). Fresh food is ~70% moisture โ€” less calorie-dense than dry kibble, but far more nutritious.

Daily lbs = DER รท 450  ยท  Daily grams = DER รท 0.99  ยท  1 lb โ‰ˆ 4 cups

Small dog (15 lbs Shih Tzu, neutered, moderate) โ†’ RER 306 ร— 1.4 ร— 1.0 = 428 kcal โ†’ ~433g/day (~1.9 cups) ยท 1 lb lasts ~2.1 days
Medium dog (40 lbs Corgi mix, neutered, moderate) โ†’ RER 554 ร— 1.4 ร— 1.0 = 776 kcal โ†’ ~784g/day (~3.5 cups) ยท 1 lb lasts ~0.6 days
Tip: Always weigh fresh food on a digital kitchen scale. Cups are inaccurate because moisture content changes volume. Grams give your pup the precise nutrition they need every time.
