Nutrition is a cornerstone of Ibizan Hound health. An adult Ibizan Hound weighing 20–29kg typically requires 1250–1550 kcal of high-quality food per day, split across two meals to support consistent energy levels and healthy digestion. Their high energy output means Ibizan Hounds need a calorie-dense diet — look for a working- or active-dog formula with at least 25% protein content. Always adjust portions based on your dog's individual weight, life stage, and activity level, and consult your vet before making significant dietary changes.
Portion sizes are approximate guidelines for a medium-breed dog. Adjust based on your dog's individual weight, age, and activity level. Always consult your vet.
