CommentWe are looking forward to our new little girl, a black lab, who will be 9 weeks old when we get her on the 28th. Our precious Rottygirl passed from cancer 5 months ago, and we swore no more dogs until our friends introduced us to this new puppy. We have not trained a puppy in 10 years, pray for us. We are both 70 years old, WHAT ARE WE THINKING!!! Her name will be Luna and we are soooo excited.

I would like to say your site is great with real answers. I have black lab and didn’t know how much to feed her a day. But I have an ideal now, but I do give her 6oz of raw at night with 1/2 cp of kibbles. Most others sites did not show for a little overweight. Thank you

In reply to Emily Brown. How big are the portions? Cut in half a still feed 4 x day. Move to 3x day soon. Helps with potty training

My lad is 1.5 years old and is neutered. I used to feed him with Origen until he turned 1, but then our vet advised that high protein food is not suitable for dogs who do not exercise at least 2-3 hours a day as it could cause kidney and liver problem in time. Also when we had the lab nurtured they again advised on low protein diet to avoid weight gain. So we have been feeding him with the vet series of Purina Pro Plan Derma ever since. He seems happy and in good shape. However, I hate that the food is full of grain and rice but at the same time how to keep a low protein diet for neutered dogs that is not full of grain? I cannot do the math. Please advise. I’m happy to hear a different opinion. Raw diet is out of the question in our case.

I have 5.5 year old English Lab. I recently started cooking her food. She has lost quite a bit of weight since the diet change. I’m worried that I’m not feeding her enough. I cook a pound of ground beef, ground turkey or ground chicken. I mix the pound of meat with 2 cups of cooked rice and 2 cans of vegetables (either green beans and carrots or spinach and carrots). I crush up 5 hardboiled eggs in with it all. Once it’s mixed I divide it into 2 cup portions and feed that to her in the morning and the evening. I add a couple of scoops of plain yogurt mixed with pumpkin to it as well. Should I be giving her larger portions or a different ratio of food. Thanks…

Hi I have a lab who’s 2 years and 7 months . Took him to vets this week and got him weighted he weights 42.8kg they say his weight is okay could still be a bit more lighter . Now I just want to make sure I am giving him the correct dry food amount for him . I just want to know how much kibble dry food should the dog be having at his age . Would be helpful if could get some advice on this . I give him kibble and a little portion of rice as his poi’s can sometimes be a bit soft .
