Hi all, I was curios how much protein my 9yr old bully should get? She is on Merrick duck and sweet potato, she get 3/4 c twice a day. She also gets a small amount of wellness venison sweet potato or duck sweet tater. Large can lasts about 3 days. She is 55 lbs. I wasn't sure if her bing a senior mattered.

Seniors actually require more quality protein with age so what you are feeding her now is good. Do not go with a low protein “senior” food.
