FREEZE-DRIED RAW FEEDING GUIDE
How much to feed a Rottweiler
Quick answer: An adult Rottweiler typically weighs 80–135 lb and needs about 32.0–54.0 oz of freeze-dried raw food per day — roughly 2–3% of body weight — usually split across two meals. Use the chart below to dial in the right amount, then adjust to keep a lean, healthy condition.

Freeze-dried raw is measured before rehydrating. These are starting points based on ~2–3% of ideal body weight — always adjust to body condition, not the bag.
Feeding a Rottweiler: what to know
By life stage
- Puppy: growing Rottweiler puppies need more fuel — start around 5–8% of current body weight per day across 3–4 meals, tapering toward adult amounts as they mature.
- Adult: about 32.0–54.0 oz/day, split into two meals.
- Senior: similar to adult but watch for lower activity — trim portions if you feel less of a waistline.
