    I haven't fed tinned food. What does it recommend on the tin? Doesn't sound quite enough to me for a growing puppy but I could be completely wrong!

    I'm not sure of quantities with tinned food but if he looks thin (you can see his ribs) feed a little more. They are growing so fast at this age!

    Hi, I've just had a look at the Pedigree website and it does look as if your pup should be getting more food based upon their charts and which variant you are feeding.

    What does it say on the can regarding feeding directions?
    I always pitched Juno's adult weight as 25kg but as you have a boy I would go heavier, probably the 30kg mark and calculate the amount in relation to his age and see how he goes. Ultimately there is only one way to know if they are getting the right amount and that is by weight gain and their shape.
