Talking How much Canidae do I need to Feed?

I have an 11.5 week old little boy. I just changed him from Eukanuba Large breed puppy to Canidae All Life Stages. He was eating everything we would put in his bowl but since we changed, he is only eating maybe 2 cups a day. He weighs about 28lbs. Is that enough or is he trying to say the food is no good? Help anyone?

1.5 to 2 cups per day is perfect. If possible, divide the feedings into 3 times a day.

As he gets older you can increase his feeding, just do it slowly because you want to keep him lean. If his waist starts to disappear cut back on food.

We have been giving him 1 cup three times a day, but there has always been some left in his bowl. Thanks for that though. I was wondering if he was eating so much less because the food is so much richer and better for him or because he didn't like it. Thanks again.

3 cups a day is what I have been feeding my almost 5 month old, and she's about 45 pounds, so yes def cut back. She's also on Canidae, although I just started transitioning her to Orijen Large Breed Puppy.
