The first column "Intake" calculates nutrient requirements based on the caloric intake required based on the dogs weight and activity level.
The second column is the standard NRC nutrient calculation that is based on the standard caloric intake of 1,000 calories. It divides the nutrient, e.g., 1.0 gram of calcium, by the weight of the dog.
I use the first column. I can't remember much about the second column as it has been so long since I have done this. I will go back and check my NRC book and post more information about it. |  |  |  |  |
