Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! How much food a dog should receive is based on what type of food it is, what the pet current's weight status is (ideal, underweight, or overweight), and any underlying medical issue. On average, dogs of Penny's size should receive 1/3-1/2 cup of food twice a day, with the specifics taking into account the aforementioned information and details.
