What each stage means for a Boykin Spaniel

Young adult (1–3): still learning. Keep training consistent and set the healthy weight now; for a Boykin Spaniel that is usually within 25–40 lb.
Mature adult (3–8): yearly checkups, dental care and steady exercise. Watch the waistline as activity drops.
Senior (9+): many vets suggest checkups every six months, plus attention to joints, teeth and weight changes.

How much a Boykin Spaniel eats

A spayed or neutered adult around 32 lb needs roughly 840 calories a day, about 2.2 cups of a typical 380-calorie-per-cup dry food. See the full feeding guide for a 30 lb dog.
