On October the 8th, at the Spanish Labrador Club Show, held at Talavera de la Reina, Toledo, Spain, FIVE Labradors were left in a dog trailer overnight and were found dead in the morning. Godspeed to the gentle souls and SHAME on the owner and co-owner!

How much food would you recommend for a 10 pound 8 week old puppy?
I've read 5% of current weight, which is only 8 oz a day and doesn't seem very much. If I go with 2% of adult weight it would be more than double that!!!
