Blimey....I could try that,give her a third of what I think she would want
to eat, and the divide that into three.....I just find it odd!

Back when I first got Khan, I used to hand feed him, because he wouldn't eat
very much, and I was positive that I was feeding him the right amount, what
was recommended on the bag. I was using an empty container of liver treats
'cause the container held 8 oz of liver treats, and I was working under the
assumption that since 8 oz = 1 cup, I was in fact feeding him 1 cup of
kibble. HAH! I was waaay overfeeding the dog.

Once I got a proper measuring cup and started feeding him according to his
body condition, he started eating with no prodding from me. Now, he drools
while waiting for his food and bucks like a horse once I pick up the bowl.
