Monitor body condition, not just weight. You should be able to feel your dog's ribs easily but not see them. If you can't feel ribs, reduce food.
Puppies need 3–4 meals per day. Adults do well on 2 meals/day. Senior dogs may prefer 2–3 smaller meals.
Fresh water always available. Dogs need about 1 oz of water per lb of body weight per day — more in heat or during heavy work.
Working dogs (hunting, herding, sled) can need 2–3× the calories of a similar-weight house dog.
These are starting points — adjust by 10% at a time and reassess body condition every 2–4 weeks.
