Hi Hound Dog Mom,
I’m curious about the calcium calculations. The requirement for 3.5g of calcium for growing LB pups, is that on an “As fed” or on dry matter basis? The reason I asked was that Wellness Core puppy is 1.23% as fed and 1.34% DM.

Also, would you keep the dog on limited calcium longer if the pup was a giant breed ie. around 65-70kg as an adult?

Thank you.
