FAQs
Does Purina have an official calorie calculator?
Purina provides feeding guides on their product packaging based on their own MER calculations. Our calculator uses the same veterinary RER formula that Purina’s nutritionists use, giving results consistent with — and often more precise than — the broad bag ranges.
Which Purina product is best for weight loss?
Purina Pro Plan Weight Management or Purina ONE Healthy Weight are specifically formulated for weight management, with higher fibre and lower calorie density. Purina also offers prescription weight loss diets through vets for dogs needing more significant caloric restriction.
