About this file
Attachment 2 is a detailed nutritional requirements document for Military Working Dogs (MWDs), part of GSA solicitation 47QSCC-25-Q-0022. The document specifies five distinct nutritional profiles based on training and deployment intensity, ranging from "very low" to "very high" activity levels. Each profile defines precise percentage ranges for protein (22-28+%), fat (<10-25+%), and carbohydrates (>48-<27%), with a critical requirement that all diets be from the same manufacturer to ensure ingredient consistency during diet transitions. The nutritional profiles are calibrated to support MWDs through various stages of training, weight management, patrol/detection work, deployment preparation, and high-intensity operational activities.
