How old is he? How much do you feed him? Generally, if you follow the instructions on the bag as to how much food to feed by weight of the dog, you should be OK. It's not considered a good idea to leave food down all the time.
I've heard good and bad things about science diet. I recently started a thread that showed you how to rate dogfood, and the two science diet brands they tested did poorly. Here's how to check. Scroll down to see the rating of the science diet brands.
