Our babies have similar names by the way We call June Junebug sometimes. | A 1/4 cup 2x a day with some wet mixed in plus some treats should be sufficient. Vet didn't say anything to me about his weight but figuring in treats as part of his daily intake is crucial. p.s. A Biewer breeder in my area told me to watch his protein intake and to keep it under 28%..there are some treats out there with protein up to and over 60%!!!
