Question: how much food should a small breed dog eat?
Answer: Miniature poodles, miniature pinschers and other small breed dogs like Scottish terriers and Pekingese usually weigh between 10 pounds and 25 pounds. Dogs of this size require between 3/4 cup and 1 cup of food per day. If you plan to feed your dog twice a day, give him about 1/2 cup of food for each meal.
