Samoyed Dog Calorie Needs & Nutrition Guide

Samoyeds are strong, energetic, and have thick, beautiful coats. Their calorie needs are higher than average, with adults needing 1,200 to 1,800 calories per day. Puppies and working Samoyeds may require more.

Feed your Samoyed a diet rich in animal proteins, healthy fats, and fiber. Avoid foods with fillers and artificial additives. Wet food can help with hydration, while dry food supports dental health. Always provide fresh water and consider supplements for joint and coat health.
