my dog whippet, fully grown 2yrs old, working gets fed a mug of DR John complete working buscuit in the morning after his exercise, half a mug at dinner time he got into a habbit n keeps him quiet lol, and a mug at night after his exercise.

 

this keeps him nicely :thumbs:

every dog is going to be different depending on work load, weather, current condition, and if they are on a well rounded flesh diet versus kibble ... for example our 60 pound running dogs will eat 3 cups of kibble when they aren't working, but when being fed for hard work they will eat 2 cups of flesh, 1 cup of fat, 1 cup of veg, 1 cup of kibble. Our 60 pound guard dog will barely eat a cup of food a day ... completely different metabolism though

all dogs are different some need more some less depends on the amount of work
