Default How much???

When I first took Paddington to the vet, he was 4 lbs, three months old. Last month, he was five months old and weighed 6 lbs. During the first visit, the vet told me to feed him 1/3 C food. Well since he is bigger, I have increased the amount of food, but I am wondering if now he gets too much??? He gets one 1/3 C scoop in the morning, and one 1/3 scoop in the evening. Sometimes he also gets a half of a small apple chopped up or a half a jar of baby food (not every night, just sometimes... maybe three times a week)

is 2/3 C too much food for a 6 lb 5 month yorkie? I know dogs are different than cats, but my cats both ate a cup of dry food, plus half a can of wet food,and they were about the same size..... That is kind of what I was basing it on.

Thanks for an advice!
