All 3 are between 6 and 7.5 lbs, though my other girl who ate the same amount got up to 15 lbs. |
We feed her 1/4 cup in the morning and 1/4 cup in the evening. She doesn't eat the 1/4 cup in one sit like my adult dogs do with their small meals, so we leave the bowl available all day for her.
Sometimes we feed her one extra 1/8 if she finishes her last 1/4 cup early and we notice she's looking for more food in her owl. Most of the time she finishes the 1/2 before going to bed, though.
