8-9 oz... Twice a day. Isn't all that much food depending on the dog. I got a few that need almost twice that depending on the conditions. Though i feed once a day. I also feed kibble and find supplementing them with enzymes, amino acids, salmon oil and kelp helps them process their kibble better but also gives me an all around healthier dog systemically and visually.

Also. Dog lovers gold is 26/18. Have u thought of getting a kibble with a higher amount of fat and protein in it? Like a 30/20?
