Since I also feed some Honest Kitchen food at every meal, they are always getting that unprocessed protein source along with the vegetables and fruits in the Honest Kitchen food (see below). How Much Protein at Each Meal?
Every dog has different exercise and activity habits and at different ages a varying metabolism. . There is no set amount of food that you can feed and then stick with it throughout a dog’s life. The amount needed will vary based on these factors so you need to watch your dog’s weight and keep her as slim as you possibly can for joint health and longevity. This means that if you find her getting chubby you need to INCREASE protein and decrease carbohydrates (the kibble) until she takes off whatever she may have gained. As a general idea, if you have a medium sized 50 lb. dog, then ½ a cup of protein per meal is probably about right – a large or smaller dog should adjust accordingly.
