How to tell if your dog is
at the perfect weight

How much should I be feeding my dog?

Most of our ALD adults 15-25# are eating
1/3 C twice a day
25-45# are usually eating 1/2 c twice a day.

I recommend feeding a puppy 3 times a day until they are 4.5 - 5 months of age.

Most of our adult Golden Retrievers are eating 1 cup twice a day.

Puppies nutritional needs change weekly.  The only way you can tell if you puppy/dog is getting fed the correct amount is to put hands on your dog and feel for the spine.

It's not uncommon for a Golden Retriever puppy around 4 months of age to start eating upwards of 6 cups of food a day for a few weeks.  Then they will plump back up and you can cut back.   It's much easier to see if a Golden is getting chubby or leaning out over a doodle.   The doodles simply have too much fluff.  Hand on and feel for the spine.
