The amount of protein in a dog's diet should be between 18-25% daily. In terms of the correct amount of food, I would feed an adult formulated dog food and give your dog the daily allotment recommended on the bag. Divide it into two equal portions to feed your dog twice a day; once in the morning and once in the evening.
