Well since he has been on the duck and pear he has been eating more- in the morning i give him his 1/3 of a cup, by the evening his bowl his empty!

I then think well i dont want him to starve... So i put 1/4 back in is bowl, he will then take a couple more bites, maybe leave 2 kibbles in there-

how much should i be feeding,? I dont want to overfeed ( trying to get him to shed a couple pounds) but i dont want him to be hungry either

I called acana and they told me for his weight and activity he should be at 1/3 of a cup-

how much do you all feed your babies?

well oscar is 7 lbs but small & compact.
He is eating acana pacifica and i give him a little over 1/2 cup
per day. He seems satisfied with that. I tried giving him 3/4 cup but he got soft poo, guess it was too much.
He is doing good on the 1/2 cup
