Jackson is a very active 16lbs and eats 3/4 cup of a 391 kcal/cup food. I wouldn't want him any chunkier than his frame he's at it now (pictured posted). With that said, he's got the proper metabolism and body condition that if he wants more food... I'll give it to him, since he doesn't need to lose any weight. |
Well she is only eating about a 1/2 cup so I think shes doing pretty good then right? I honestly don't know a lot about dog food. I try to do some research but after the surgery I was like trying anything to get her to eat. She liked the Canidae but I honestly cannot find it anywhere local and I would like to get her food semi close instead of having to order and have it shipped.
