Buddy my 80 pound golden only gets 3 cups kibble if he has been highly active that day. Most days he will get 2 cups of kibble. My super active yorkie, Roxy will only eat max 1/2 cup kibble total but would eat much more of human food if allowed. 1 day she ate 1.5 cups of food- Home cooked for dog by my friend.
3 cups is a lot of kibble especially if the puppy is less than 3 pounds.
I just weighted 1 cup of dog food it weighted 8.2 ounces. 8.2 x 3 = 24.6
16 ounces to a pound. 24.6/16 = 1.53 pounds.
That would mean about 1/2 of the dog's weight is kibble. |
