Feeding & nutrition

Rottweiler feeding guide and our kennel routine

Snubnose Rottweiler describes a fresh, homemade feeding routine for its dogs and puppies rather than a kibble-based diet. Meals are prepared as part of the kennel’s daily care routine.

Feeding questions

How much should I feed a Rottweiler?

A useful feeding plan starts with the individual dog and the food being fed.

Can I use a Rottweiler feeding chart by weight?

Weight is one input. Age, body condition, activity, health, and the food’s calorie content also matter. Ask your veterinary team to set a daily calorie goal and translate it into portions for your dog’s food, including treats. A chart cannot provide the same portion for every Rottweiler of a given weight.

What should I ask about feeding a Rottweiler puppy?

Get the puppy’s current food, measured portions, schedule, and transition information from Marc. Review that information with your veterinarian and agree on a monitoring plan as the puppy grows.

Is the ingredient list a complete feeding recipe?

The list below describes the kennel routine. It does not establish nutritional completeness or specify balanced amounts. WSAVA recommends professional evaluation or formulation of homemade diets by a qualified veterinary nutritionist.

  • Ground beef
  • Chicken
  • Mackerel
  • Chicken gizzards
  • Chicken livers
  • Gelatin
  • Eggs with shell

  • Sweet potatoes

Puppy transition

A gradual start

Puppies receive their mother’s milk until week 7. After that, Marc introduces the same ingredient approach used for the adult dogs and adds cottage cheese.

For current puppy-specific questions, including timing and transition details, contact Marc directly before making any feeding decision for your own puppy.
