Um, follow the instructions on the bag.. almost ALL bags of dog food have a recommended feeding amount. maybe give the dog the fresh chicken breast as treats through out the day... A dog that size doesnt need to eat more than maybe a cup of food each day.

It sounds as if she is getting plenty to eat. A healthy weight doesn't mean that a dog is chubby. You should be able to feel her ribs without actually seeing the skeletal outline of her body.

Why would she not be getting enough???
