Rule of Thumb - When feeding a homemade raw diet healthy, moderately active adult dogs should be fed 1 - 3% of their body weight. Therefore, a 50 pound dog would be fed 1 - 1.5 lbs per day.
Please note - puppies require larger amounts! Owners need to look at what the ideal adult weight is expected to be and feed for that future weight. For example, a 15 lb puppy that is expected to weigh 50 lb at maturity, should be fed 1.5 lbs per day.
* Preparation note: puree vegetables for more efficient digestibility
