Dog Food for Aussiedoodles
The Aussiedoodle combines the Australian Shepherd's work ethic with the Poodle's intelligence, and the result is one of the smartest, most energetic doodles around. They thrive on exercise, training, and having a job to do, and many still show their herding instincts at home. Aussiedoodles range from about 25 lb for minis up to 70 lb for standards, often with eye-catching merle coats that are wavy to curly and need regular grooming.
An active dog needs steady energy and a coat that holds up to all that running around, without a food so rich it upsets the stomach.
Why Your Best Friend fits Aussiedoodles
Balanced energy for busy dogs
27% protein and 15% fat (minimums) from salmon and fish, with ancient grains for steady, digestible energy. Very active Aussiedoodles may simply need a little more per day.
Skin and coat support
Omega-3 fatty acids (1.5% min), zinc, vitamin E (400 IU/kg min), and biotin support healthy skin and a coat that stays soft between grooms.
Gentle on sensitive stomachs
Salmon and fish are the protein, with no chicken, corn, wheat, or soy, plus pre-, pro-, and postbiotics for steady digestion.
Heart health, guaranteed
Guaranteed taurine (0.10% min) and L-Carnitine (300 mg/kg min) to support a healthy, hard-working heart.
How much to feed an Aussiedoodle
These are starting points for an average adult with a normal activity level. Dogs that run, hike, or work every day may need 10 to 20% more. Adjust to keep your dog lean and fit.
| Adult weight | Cups per day | A 28 lb bag lasts about |
|---|---|---|
| 25 lb (mini) | 1¾ | 10 weeks |
| 35 lb | 2¼ | 7½ weeks |
| 50 lb | 3 | 5½ weeks |
| 65 lb (standard) | 3¾ | 4½ weeks |
Puppies need more food per pound than adults, so split their daily amount into three or four meals. Your vet can help you fine-tune portions as your puppy grows.
