Talking Unanswered: raw food diet

Hi i was wondering if any one knew how much exactly i need to feed my English mastiff on the raw food. She is just turned 4 months old an i want to make sure i am not feeding her too much food. I know i have to keep her at a good weight due to her being a large breed and i so far have kept that up but i want to make sure i dont over feed her and make her over weight. I have fed raw before but she is a much larger breed then i have had before so i am unsure. Please if your against the raw food diet don't judge or write negative comments we all choose what we feed. I would appreciate some feed back thanks.

We have several members here that raw feed so some one should be able to help you. But then again, you may want to search the net since feeding amounts are based on dog size and breeds whether raw diet or not and I do not think any members here have a breed that size.

I feed raw as well as home cooked but mine are medium size adults. So I checked out the web and this link might give you some answers or at least help some: Great Dane and Mastiff Nutrition and Feeding, What food should I feed? Giant Breed Dog Feeding, Mastiff Puppies, Great Dane Puppy Food

You can look up more by putting what I put in my browser--->raw feeding large breed puppies how much---
