I'm reading the label wrong I think. Small Breed Puppy Food | Eukanuba.com
No, the feeding information says 1 cup per day. I emailed my breeder...

I agree that's a large amount. But it's got to do with the quality of the food. Right now, Scarlett is 3.6 lbs (14 weeks) and eats about 1/4 cup of Blue Buffalo per day, and some days even that's a fight. But even 1/8 of a cup is more than 10-12 kibble (they could be smaller than the eukanuba though...)
Obviously, since he gobbles the amount you give him and is looking for more, he needs more than 12 kibble. Then again- he could just be one of those pups that will eat everything in sight. My mom has to keep Emmalee away from Oliver during feeding times because she INHALES her food and then she would run over and eat all of Oliver's on top of it. The dog literally won't stop if there is food any where nearby (think Marley in scene with the bag of food).
