still hungry?

I recently made the switch to Innova from Nutro Natural Choice. My 5 month old puppy is getting 4 1/2 cups a day (split up over 3 feedings) which is the amount I got from Innova. She scarfs it down like she hasn't eaten all day and acts like she's still hungry. Does anyone else have this problem? She is definately not underweight. She's about 53 lbs., she's actually a bit too heavy.

She probably just likes the food better. :) If she's heavy, you should cut back on the amount she's getting - being heavy while growing is very bad for the joints. You can help her feel less hungry by giving her veggies like carrots to eat.
