How much mixed wet and dry food should my 6lb chihuahua eat?

Question

My chihuahua weighs 6 pounds. I feed him wet and dry food mixed but I think I'm overfeeding. How much of each should he eat? I feed wet and dry because he refuses to eat just dry food. He eats twice a day. Pet's info: Dog | Chihuahua | Male | neutered | 3 years and 3 months old | 6 lbs

The recommended amount is usually written on your bag and can of dog food, because every food has a different kcal amount. However for such a small dog my guess would be around 1/2 cup or can daily, give or take. And it is perfectly fine to feed him dry and wet canned food daily. Best wishes and take care.
