I have two pups. First let me start with that I do home cooking for them but always keep dry out in case they get hungry. With the home cooking, I have a recipe that is specific for my dog based on age, weight, health, etc. As far as the dry food, I am currently using Taste of the Wild and I have not had any trouble at all. I pay about $12 for a 5 lb bag.
I feed my girls twice a day. Once in the morning and once in the early evening time. Most of the time they are satisfied. However, occasionally they will eat some of the dry that I keep out. So the thought is maybe split his meal to keep him from getting hungry? I would think that the twice a day for him would be fine. On my recipe for the homecooking, it is for a one time meal but tells me that it is ok to split it up into 2 or 3 meals. So I would think it would be ok to do it with other foods as well.
I am sorry I can't help about the amount to feed or have any more knowledge about puppies. Both of my girls were older than that when I got them. Hopefully someone here can give you more useful information. Good luck!
