Amount to feed...

[Ann]

My sheltie breeder actually had a whole link about dog food on her website and she has an actual formula to figure out how much you should feed your dogs and I have gone by it for the last two years for both my sheltie and westie and they always get an A+ from the vet on their weight. Here is a link to the page on her site, but one thing you do need to know is how many calories is in an 8oz serving of your dog food (most have it on the bag and if not call the company).

If you scroll down about 1/2 way you'll see the equation.

I have to say this is by far the BEST article I have ever read on dog food. Excellent!! It should be required reading for every dog owner. Four paws up!!
