As an adult the amount should be 3% of bodyweight

my pups ment 2be get 2about 20inches shoulder when hes fully grown and im guessing about 40lbs hes 7months old weighs about 25-30lbs hes a APBT. Looking at him id say he gets fed well and right but id rather be sure than make an assumtion

If he looks right then you're obviously doing right!...don't worry ..its not an exact science just go by the way your dog looks and feels to the hand
