As a general rule for adult dogs B-size for dry food: around 1% of their bodyweight per day.
For puppies a bit more.
Also depends on their activity, temperature and the like.
Just check how close you are to this, and see how the body responds.
We have found that a little food extra or less can make a difference.

Pet Treats With Salmonella Recalled
Bacteria Could Infect Animals, PeoplePOSTED: 5:50 am EDT April 3, 2007
WASHINGTON – There is yet another pet food recall.
Eight in One is recalling packages of its Dingo brand dog, cat and ferret treats because of concerns over salmonella. The company says the bacteria could infect both animals and people handling the food.
The announcement is not related to the recalls of tainted food that has led to kidney failure in pets around the country.
The recall involves Dingo Chick'n Jerky, Dingo Kitty Chicken Jerky and Dingo Ferret Chicken Jerky.
The company asks consumers to throw away unused portions of the jerky treats.

Hollie and I have made another trip to the local dog bakery. No more treats that aren't homemade. I am attempting to cook for her too. It's more work, but definately worth the trouble.
