how many servings would there be in 5 pounds for a 90 pound dog?

A 5 ibs. bucket lasts my 80 lbs. German Shepherd about 6-7 months at one scoop per day (maintenance level). So, it would be in the 180-200 servings range... or so!

2 scoops first 2 months, then 1 scoop per day. One scoop = 2 tablespoons, or 1/8 cup. Try measuring some sugar or flour to get an idea how many would scoops you would get from 5 lbs. Nupro is a wonderful product & worth every scoop!

A 90lb dog would get 2 scoops a day for the first 2 months. And 1 scoop per day thereafter. That is the recommended dosage on the tub. It is hard to say exactly how many scoops there are per tub but the scoop is small. I am estimating 6+ months. I am 1 month in a new tub and barely put a dent in it. However I only do 1 scoop per day, all the time, as maintenance. Its a lot and should last a while. Hope that helps.

Hello, there would be alot. When my Boxer was alive she got a half of scoop full and it lasted many many months. You do not need alot to see a big difference in their coat. Hope that helps.

After looking at many of the reviews and asking my veterinarian, the 1 scoop recommended scoop is too much for the dog. My vet says too much is as bad as not enough, so at my vet's recommendation, I give my 85 lb German Shepherd 1/2 scoop with each mean, which equals 1 scoop daily. With that dosage, the 5 lb container has lasted for months. I'm getting ready to order more.

Between my 3 dogs, I feed out 6.5 cups per day, and a large bag lasts me 2 weeks. So, something like 91 cups?

Not sure if this helps, but I use 1 1/3 cups a day for two small dogs. I reorder every 2 months and I am usually down to my last 4 or 5 days worth.

My dog is about 45 pounds and I give him a whole scoop at dinner. So I would say give your dog a little less then a half of scoop.

On the 3lbs container it says 90 servings. Of course if you double the daily serving like I do, it will only be 45 per container.

My dog gets the suggested daily dose of 1/4 rounded teaspoon per cup of dry dog food. I know there are a lot of doses in the size container I buy which is one pound. This seems to be just about right for her as she seems to have no digestive problems. I have never actually counted the dosages, but it lasts a long time. I wouldn't want to be without this product.

20% should be the max weight to give your dog unless (s)he is in top-top shape and/or is a breed meant for hard work. For examble a 5lb Chihuahua probably shouldn't hold more than 1lb max, but an 80lb German Shepherd could hold 16lbs (20%), but in top shape could carry 20-25lbs. It depends on your dog's body fat percentage and athletic ability. Also take into consideration the age and probablility of your dog developing arthritis and if he'll be wearing the pack for long enough to do significant damage to his joints.

This particular formula is for 20 lbs and under. I'm sure they have a product for larger breeds. I make my own dog food and put a scoop in each serving for my Chihuahuas. They love it and they are very healthy.

22-28 pounds would be my guesstimate. I have three shelties ranging from 17.5 to 23 pounds. They all get a half a chewie once a day.

The ones that I ordered for my 10 pound Yorkie were 225 mg. She needed half of one each day.

All size dogs ! Actually the kibble pieces are small and triangle shaped and the size of a dime. My adorable cockapoo, Sophie, has been eating it since she was a puppy at 9 weeks of age ... She is now 5 years and 5 months old and weighs 22 1/2 lbs. I feed her about a third of a cup in the AM and about a cupful a day in the evening. I moisten it with a little warm water. She also gets two or more small treats through the day. Sophie and I both highly recommend this dog food.

The cannister says 30 scoops or servings, but I take a 1/2 a scoop at a time, used to take one scoop but had some gastric issues with that much. I've been using this stuff for 5 months and it is just great.

My dog is a 5.5 pitbull when i was giving him bully max i did notice when he would walk up the steps his back and neck were more muscular. It gave him diarrhea so i stopped giving it to him. I recommend boiling chicken and giving him boiled chicken and raw egg mixed in his food. Dont dump the chicken broth feed him that too. Just try upping his protein intake and making sure hes getting daily exercise. Depending on how old he is it might just be how its going to be. Just like when we get old taking body building supplements isnt going to do much when your 90 lol. Good luck. Talk to your vet about options.

Without having a bag's feeding instructions according to weight in front of me (in between orders), I would suggest you find another type of food only for the reason this food would cost you a bundle to use as the primary food. I use it as a supplement for variety. For my dog, their suggestion is to feed (16-20 lbs) about 8 nuggets daily as the only food. Believe me, no matter what size package...it does not last very long. When I get my order, I will be glad to add to your question with some facts but again, I think this particular brand would cost you a bundle to feed a 65 pound dog.

Yes, I feed my 2 dogs a 1/2 3.5 oz over dry food 2 xs a day. I have a 15 lb and 9 lb. the dry stays down if they get hungry but they never finish it. I go through one pack a day.

We have two small dogs as well. They often eat a whole one but you could break them in half.
