    We decided to spruce things up and fix some things under the hood. If you notice any issues, feel free to contact us as we're sure there are a few things here or there that we might have missed in our upgrade.

How much do you feed your adult English Mastiff?

Sadie eats (per feeding) 2 cups of TOTW High Prairie Puppy, mixed with one lb of cooked ground turkey and 1/2 can of pumpkin, and it needs to be served warm, or she will not eat :p She is 2 years old, 142lb. Still trying to figure out what she can eat and what she can't. So far this mix has kept her diarrhea in check.
Good to hear that you may have found a solution to the diarrhea. Titan said he misses Miss Sadie. :)

Wow, I didn't think I was feeding my boy a lot,but it sounds like he gets double of what other dogs get. He is pretty thin, but he gets 7 cups twice a day with 2 tbs yogurt and the same amount of coconut oil. He weighs about 180#s.image.jpg

It all depends on what food you are feeding, and sometimes they require more food.

We split the amounts shown into two feedings.
Miss Vegas (finally 100#@ 17 months) Gets offered about 3 cups Earthborn + some sort of topper
usually beef or pork. Most days she eats about 1/2 to 2/3 of it.
Bear (11 months, 130#) gets a total of 6 cups + topper with a bit of pumpkin added now to help with the transition off of the Purina.
As stated by others the food quality has a big impact on amount.
Bear started at 8 cups of Purina but now leaves just a few pieces behind
of the Earthborn.
