Forthglade feeding guide
Forthglade is a UK brand built around natural, additive-free wet and lightly baked dog food, and the feeding amount depends on which part of the range you are using — a complete meal is a full portion, while a broth topper or treat is an addition on top of one, not a replacement for it.
What we stock, and how the range fits together
Our range includes Forthglade's Complete meals — grain-free and brown rice recipes across chicken, turkey, lamb, fish and other proteins — alongside their British Classics range, lightly baked meals, cold-pressed food, broth toppers and soft-bite treats. Complete meals are designed to be a full, balanced meal on their own; the rest are additions.
The pack always states the feeding guide for that specific product, based on your dog's weight, and that figure is the right place to start rather than a general rule of thumb across the whole brand — a complete meal and a broth topper are simply not measured the same way.
The lightly baked and cold-pressed lines sit somewhere between the two in how they are typically used — some owners feed them as the full meal in their own right, others mix a portion in alongside a dry kibble, so check which use the specific product is designed for before deciding how much to serve.
Getting the amount right in practice
Weigh a complete meal portion against the guide on the pack rather than filling a bowl by eye, and adjust gradually over a week or two based on how your dog holds their weight — the printed guide is a starting point tailored to an average dog, not a fixed rule for yours specifically.
Toppers and broths are meant to sit on top of an existing meal in a small amount, not to bulk it out significantly, and treats should stay a small fraction of the day's total food. If you are unsure how a new product fits your dog's current routine, introduce it gradually rather than swapping everything at once.
Switching between different proteins within the Complete range — from chicken to turkey, say — is usually well tolerated by dogs already used to the brand, but introduce a genuinely new range, such as moving from a familiar wet meal onto the cold-pressed food for the first time, more gradually over several days.

Common questions
- How much Forthglade should I feed my dog?
- Check the feeding guide printed on the specific product, since a complete meal, a broth topper and a treat are all measured differently. The guide is based on your dog's weight and is a sensible starting point to adjust from rather than a fixed rule.
- Is Forthglade a complete or complementary food?
- It depends on the specific product. The Complete range is formulated as a full meal on its own, while broth toppers, cold-pressed food and treats are designed as additions to your dog's normal diet rather than a replacement for it — check the pack for which category a product falls into.
- Can I mix wet and dry food when feeding Forthglade?
- Yes, many owners mix a Forthglade wet meal with a dry kibble, adjusting the amount of each so the combined feed matches what your dog needs rather than adding a full portion of both. Introduce any change gradually over several days to avoid unsettling their stomach.
