Part one of a two-part dehydrated foundation mix designed to optimize your dog's digestion by separating carbohydrates and protein throughout the day. This carefully crafted base mix provides you with complete control over ingredient freshness and vegetable selection. The added herbs within help to support the liver, kidneys, heart, lungs, and digestive tract. An ideal choice for older dogs, dogs with sensitive digestion, or those in recovery.

Build a Bowl
Every dog is special. But it’s not just their personality. Every dog has unique nutrition needs based on their breed, size, shape, activity level and many other factors. The best way to help your dog be the best version of themselves is to build a healthy, balanced bowl that’s a combination of grains, vegetables, proteins, hydrators and supplements that are specific to your pet.
When you build a bowl here at Volhard, you will start with the choice of foundation mix. For better planning, it’s helpful to think about the dog you plan to feed and their issues first. This is where you can determine the "personality" of your bowl.
Build-a-Bowl is a fun way to find out what the nutritional value is in a bowl of Volhard! Then you will be asked to add a protein for a delectable super-powered meal for your dog!
Feeding Directions:
Prepare your dog’s morning bowl in three easy steps:
1. Mix AM Porridge with vegetables, yogurt, and water as directed.
2. Let the base mix rehydrate (about 5 minutes).
3. Serve your dog a bowl with fresh and hydrating nutrition!
Daily Feeding Recommendations (Tablespoons/ Cups per Day):
AM Porridge is part one of a two-part dehydrated feeding plan.
Each dog is an individual with varying metabolisms and activity levels. The amounts suggested are only guidelines.
Puppy Feeding Guidelines
Daily Feeding Recommendations (Tablespoons/ Cups per Day):
Divide the AM daily puppy guidelines by two for feeding four times per day (recommended for puppies until teething is completed).
WEIGH YOUR PUPPY WEEKLY AND ADJUST THE FOOD ACCORDING TO THE NEW WEIGHT
AM/PM can be stored unopened in a cool dry place for up to 1 year. After opening,
AM/PM must be stored in the fridge or freezer and is good for 6 months after opening.
The Transition
Add a small amount of AM (veggies and yogurt) and/or PM (protein) to the current diet you are feeding your dog now and mix with water. As the week progresses, gradually increase the amount of the diet at each mealtime, veggies, yogurt, protein, and water as appropriate while at the same decreasing the current diet by a corresponding amount, until you have phased out the current diet. (If you are feeding the same protein for six days, you may want to feed another protein - canned mackerel or cottage cheese - on the seventh day.) At the end of the transition period, weigh your dog. Weigh your dog again after four weeks. Increase or decrease the amount you feed accordingly.
Recommended Protein: 80/20 beef.

Happy dog
My dog gets up so happy and cannot wait for his breakfast! When I was feeding kibble, he would turn his nose up at it. Some days eating very little. I know he is getting much more nutrients now.

AM and PM
My dogs have thrived on this food. I first tried it when my dog with severe joint issues at a year and half could no longer jump in the car and needed pain meds. After three weeks on this food he could once again jump in the car and no more pain meds. He also got rid of his hotspots. Another dog had bone cancer. The vet gave him 6 months. He stayed with me another 2 1/2 years. I’m convinced the food helped. My dogs have had amazing health. Hardly ever vomit or have diarrhea.

review of A.M. Porridge 20 pound bag
We like the porridge and our dog is healthy from eating it. It got rid of any digestive problems. We also love the picture of the doggy on the 20 pound bag, the adorable Staffordshire Terrier!!!

Wonderful breakfast!
We feed both our Chocolate Lab and our Westie this porridge for breakfast. They love it and we love that it's all natural and good for them! Their coats are healthier, they lost their extra weight and their overall health is just so much better. I can't recommend this and the PM enough!
