Golden hair food formula assumes: one year old golden retriever, weighing 33 kg, then the golden retriever dog needs a day of calories calculated this way: 1. multiply the weight of the dog (kg) by 3 times (33x33x33 = 35937) 2. then the answer to 1. open the root (=189.57) 3. then the answer to 2. open the root (=13.76) 4. multiply the answer to 3. by 125 ( =1720) to arrive at 1720 calories needed for this golden in a day. If it is an overweight or non-exercising dog, it is best to multiply 125 by 100. When you get the correct calorie count, count the number of calories in the cup of dog food your dog is eating. For example, you are eating an 8-ounce measuring cup (about the average family cup of rice) containing 550 calories. If you divide 1720 into 550, you will drink three more cups that day.
