 Re: How much and how often y'all feed y'all dogs
Pending on if its hunting season or not and how much im training them. I usally do 1 1/2 cups twice a day on a regular basis and 2 to 2 1/2 during hunting season. I have never had a overwieght lab doing it this way and they seem very healthy

 Re: How much and how often y'all feed y'all dogs
none of which makes any sense unless they tell you the size of their dogs ideal weight.
65 lb lab 1 1/4 cups morning and evening. Also depends on the brand/quality of the food and the amount of exercise the dog gets.

 Re: How much and how often y'all feed y'all dogs
2 cups of Natural Balance Synergy once a day. During the season it's bumped up to 3. My dog was on Purina Performance before but her coat didn't look too good. Natural Balance is the sh!t

 Re: How much and how often y'all feed y'all dogs
My gunner is a stout 85 lbs yellow lab and he eats 4 cups a day of Nutra natruals large breed puppy. in addition Before a day of training he gets a can of eukanuba lamb and rice. The vet says he hasn't seen a lab at such a perfect body comp in a long time.

 Re: How much and how often y'all feed y'all dogs
Around 4 cups. 90 lb. rottweiler female, very muscular and healthy, we use Iams large breed pro health (the green bag). I'm sure every dog is different, just like ppl, different metabolisms.
