Keep an eye on her weight and make sure she doesn't pudge up. It may take a couple of weeks to figure out just the right amounts for her. Good luck!  |
I wanted to add: from my experience with Acana, I expect she'll wind up eating closer to 1/8 cup per feeding. But 1/4 cup is a good starting point until you see what her actual needs are.
