How much should she be eating? Hi everyone, I've been wondering... Piper is almost 4 months old and my guess is she weighs about 4 pounds. She's a healthy girl and has grown tremendously since we got her at eight weeks. She's full of energy. I'm just curious how much she should be eating. I'm used to german shepherds, labs, etc. so I'm used to cups and cups of food. I want to make sure I'm not under feeding or over feeding. She isn't fat or anything but I want to just be careful. We feed her Flint River dry food. Thanks! Shannon |
Oh, and I'd say I probably give her 1 cup to 1.5 cups a day. Sometimes she eats it all, sometimes she doesn't. |
Check the back of the bag. They usually have a chart there to give you a ball park figure. From that you adjust to her activity level. Hope that helps! |
Jackson is 15lbs, and a healthy active 2 year old dog, and he eats 1/2 cup total per day of Acana kibble, plus a little bit of wet food mixed in, and some treats during the day. 1 to 1.5 cups seems like too much? But, since she is so young, maybe it's not. I know puppies need more in general but I wouldn't go over 1 cup. |
