Default Too much food

sorry, I didn't address that one; My boy Toy weighs 10 pounds and he *can* eat an entire chicken drumstick in one sitting if he's really hungry, but if he does, then he'll only get a little organs and a few bits of boneless meat that night. My Gia weighs over 5 pounds and I chop her drumstick in half which is plenty for a meal for her! But every dog is different and has different needs. A younger dog or puppy will consume more than a senior dog. How do your dogs look to you? Feel the dog's ribs, not see them is the rule! I also agree with Abigail's mom; your dogs are learning to self regulate, as I'm surprised to hear that your dogs can actually put that much food away every night! LOL
Are you feeding once or twice a day?

[quote=cococalypso;1973210] They are splitting a chicken quarter each evening, alternating who gets the drumstick each time. Maggie weighs about 6 lbs and Coco weighs about 8 lbs. Is this enough food or too much? [quote]
