    Is there something on the side (sometimes those can't be trusted anyway, I know if I fed my dogs what the instructions say they'd be huge)? Like I said, I'd be feeding her roughly 2 cups twice a day (4 cups all together).

    There HAS to be something somewhere on the bag. They can't sell food without a guideline as to how much to feed. It should be somewhere near the guaranteed analysis and ingredients list.

    Go here: Kibbles 'N Bits

    It explains how much to feed to different sized dogs.

    But it's Not EXACTLY kibbles and bits. It's the Grocery Store brand.

    It doesn't matter. The point is that she should be getting a bit more than you are currently feeding her. It has already been suggested twice....I would try about 4 cups a day (thats 2 cups twice a day)

    I don't think it matters. Pretty much all low quality foods require more feeding amounts. 4 cups a day is sufficient, why don't you do that? If she has worms, all that food shes eating is being stolen by those nasty worms. Feeding her more is the best thing to do - it doesn't matter what brand she eats, she needs more than what you give her. Give her 4 cups a day until she starts gaining her weight back atleast...

    What kind of dewormer is it? The only one I can't think of being refridgerated (even though it is not supposed to be) is Strongid-T? But even in the vet clinic - we NEVER refridgerated any dewormer.
