A note on honesty. This guide shares general, breed-typical tendencies — your pet is an individual, and breed isn't destiny. None of this replaces advice from your vet, who knows your pet's health, weight and history. Treats of any kind should make up no more than 10% of daily calories. When in doubt, ask your vet first.
