BCS adjusts the calorie target up or down based on your pet's current body condition. 5 = ideal weight.
What's their daily life like?
Pick the description that sounds most like your pet right now. These are written in plain English — no jargon.
What do you feed them?
Choose from our food database or enter the calorie number from your bag or can label.
How this works for aquatic pets: We use a percentage-of-body-weight method — no calorie counting needed. Just tell us the food type and number of animals.
For a whole tank, enter the total number of fish. We'll divide the daily portion.
These are typical average values. Use "Enter from label" to match your exact product.
Look for "Calorie Content" or "Metabolizable Energy (ME)" — usually near the ingredients list on the back or side of the bag or can. It reads something like "3,500 kcal/kg" or "350 kcal/cup". Match the toggle above to whichever unit your label shows. Can't find it? Use the list option — it's accurate enough for most foods.
We'll subtract this from the daily food portion.

Feeding a English Springer Spaniel for a healthy weight
Springers are active working dogs that gain weight if under-exercised; match calories to their genuinely high activity.
What to feed a English Springer Spaniel
Dogs are facultative carnivores: they thrive on meat-forward diets but can use carbohydrate and plant matter. A complete-and-balanced food (dry, wet, fresh, or properly-formulated raw) meeting AAFCO or FEDIAF standards should make up the vast majority of intake, with treats capped at 10% of daily calories.
Most adult dogs do best on two meals a day. Puppies under four months need three to four smaller meals; large-breed puppies should be fed a large-breed-specific formula to slow bone growth and protect their joints.
Frequently asked questions
How much should I feed my dog per day?
A 10 kg neutered adult dog at a healthy weight needs roughly 500-560 kcal per day — about 150-165 g of standard dry kibble split over two meals. Scale up or down with weight, activity and life stage using the calculator above.
Should I feed my dog once or twice a day?
Twice a day suits most adult dogs and helps regulate appetite and blood sugar. Puppies need three or more meals; some giant breeds prone to bloat also do better with smaller, more frequent meals.
