trigger2 3,129 Posted May 7, 2011 Report Share Posted May 7, 2011 Will vary the meat and add veg just wonderin how much meat to feed him i would say you will have to vary how much meat you feed depending on what exercise and how much your doing with the dog. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jjbull 38 Posted May 7, 2011 Report Share Posted May 7, 2011 fully grown adult dog as a base line should be fed 3% to 5% of the body weighjt but thats just a guide if they get fat cut it down if they get a bit ribby feed them more. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tiny 7 1,694 Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 I always find feeding by eye is the easyist way, If he is wacking weight on then cut down and if he's droping weight then feed more you'll soon work out......... 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
