General Guidelines for Feeding Your Pet
Every pet is an individual and should be fed as an individual. Use these guidelines as a starting point. In two weeks, if your pet has gained excess weight, decrease the feeding amount. If in two weeks your pet has lost weight (that you weren't trying to get him to lose), then increase the feeding amount. All feeding amounts are expressed in standard 8 ounce measuring cups per day.
