How much do you feed your dog(s)

Edit: June 13th, 2006 (Things have changed since the thread started and I just felt like updating).

Tango is fed Nutro Ultra Adult at the moment, I'd like to switch her to a higher quality food but for now this is atleast better than the Natural Choice for her. The others all eat Nutro Natural Choice Chicken meal, Rice, and Oatmeal formula.

Winston (81lbs): 1 1/4 cups, twice daily. - lose a tiny bit

Morgan (62lbs): 2 1/2 cups, twice daily. - maintain

Tango (35.5lbs): 1 - 1.5 cup/s, twice daily. People say she should eat more, but she won't eat any more than 1.5 cups most days and she's at a perfect weight. - maintain

Tia (7lbs): 1/4 to 1/2 a cup, twice daily. Usually she doesn't even eat all of that, she's not a big eater when it comes to anything. - maintain
-----------

Forgot to add earlier, they also either get cheese, yogurt, egg, meat etc. added to their dinner every night.

Tia: 1/4 to 1/2 a cup, twice daily. Usually she doesn't even eat all of that, she's not a big eater when it comes to anything.

Speaking of... I can't even remember the last time we saw some pictures of her.... It's time! We need a Winston & Tia picture thread.

On average 2 cups once a day when they get kibble and about a pound each of meat when they get that. They usually have bones laying around to chew on at will too.

Heyoka & Kayleigh get about half a cup extra each as they are much bigger. Mac & Ozzy need more food than the others due to the hound mixed into them so they get extra too.

Earle gets one cup of kibble, one cup of green beans or carrots--vet's orders, until he looses some weight. He's substantially overweight due to all his health troubles a couple months ago. Fortunately he thinks green beans are a treat!

Preacher and Sleet get slightly less as they are old and less active. They get a lower calorie kibble too.

Most of them are at a good weight. Earle is the only one who needs to loose any. Preacher probably should, but it's not going to happen. Paxil is a hard keeper. She's a fussy eater and has health issues(recurring cancer) that causes her to loose her appetite. Plus she's prone to pancreatitis so I can't give her fat to help her keep weight on.

Bailey is currently eating Fromm Puppy Gold...

He get's 2-3 cups, three times a day. So he eats 6-9 cups daily.

Grant: 2 - 2 1/2 cups in the evening.

Sadie: 1/2 - 1 cup in the evening.

Maggie: 1/2 cup in the evening.

I sometimes feed them RAW only for their meals. They get a lot of variety and various extras in their kibble such as cheese, treats, eggs, etc.

I don't measure lol. Just a bowl in the morning, and a bowl at night, more or less depending on where her weight's at.

[Suki Wingy]

about 1 cup twice daily so about 2.5 cups a day

[lute]

Gracie: 1 1/2 cups 2x a day

Beanie: i just fill his bowl. he eats whenever he wants.

All of our dogs are fed on a BARF diet so i dont exactly know how i will explain this lol.

Clover:Gets either a chicken frame w/ the organs or homemade BARF mince/ vegie/ fish combo (About 2 cups of the combo) or some other sort of fully edible bone. Plus their vitamin supplements which include Flaxseed, Molases, and various vitamins. Clover gets overfed on chicken frame night . *Needs to lose a little more then she will be on maintaining condition rations*

Elvis: Same as Clover but about another half cup of the mince combo (So about 2 - 3 cups depending on what his weight is like at the time). *Needs to lose about half a kilo*

Tinny: Same as Elvis but i have to cut her chicken frames in half and she has half for dinner and half for breakfast the next day. She also gets a small ammount of working dog dry food mixed in her dinner on mince combo night. *Maintain*

Penny & Theo:They get about half a cup of raw meet/ steak a day, usually at night. They also get RMBs to munch on during the day, or a chicken leg or wing. And they have access to an organic dry dog food at all times during the day. *Theo maintain* *Penny could do with losing half a kilo*
