	Holy crap! I didn't even think to check dogfoodanalysis.com. I've been going website to website looking for the calories! You're a smart cookie Mr. Kuma! Thanks for looking this stuff up. If anyone can get the calorie per pound (or kg) info for Iams and Eukanuba I'd appreicate it. I tried to e-mail them and it wouldn't work. Maybe it's because I'm in Canada, I don't know. Here's my list cal/lb: Artemis: Fresh Mix � 1634 Maximal Dog � 1818 Avoderm: Chicken and Brown Rice � 1568 Lamb and Brown Rice - 1706 Beneful: Original -1674 Healthy Radiance � 1726 Healthy Harvest � 1646 Blue Buffalo: Chicken and Brown Rice � 1673 Lamb and Brown Rice � 1544 Fish and Sweet Potato - 1620 Canidae: All Life Stages � 1875 Chicken and Rice � 1899 Lamb and Rice - 1828 Diamond: Hi-Energy � 1736 Original � 1540 Maintenance � 1604 Performance - 1779 Premium � 1766 Naturals Lamb � 1636 Naturals Extreme � 2141 Naturals Chicken � 1685 Naturals Beef - 1643 Fromm: Surf and Turf � 2000 Duck and Sweet Potato � 1800 Chicken A� La Veg � 1800 Whitefish and Potato � 1675 Salmon A� La Veg � 1850 Merrick: Cowboy Cookout � 1633 Grammy�s Pot Pie � 1707 Turkducken � 1660 Wilderness Blend � 1660 Campfire Trout Feast � 1679 Before Grain Buffalo � 1625 Before Grain Chicken � 1633 Before Grain Salmon � 1625 Before Grain Tuna � 1706 Nature�s Best: Chicken and Brown Rice Regular � 1674 Lamb and Brown Rice Regular - 1692 Orijen: Adult � 1909 6 Fish - 1909 Pinnacle: Chicken and Oats � 1656 Trout and Sweet Potato � 1553 Duck and Potato � 1532 Peak Protein � 1864 Purina Pro Plan: Beef and Rice � 1887 Chicken and Rice � 1987 Lamb and Rice - 1828 Selects Large Breed Lamb � 1916 Selects Chicken � 1872 Selects Lamb � 2088 Selects Salmon - 1834 Selects Turkey - 1890 Science Diet: Adult Original � 1684 Lamb and Rice � 1680 Active Adult � 2099 High Energy - 2099 Taste of the Wild: High Prairie � 1691 Pacific Stream � 1636 Wetlands - 1705 Timberwolf: Wild and Natural � 1809 Ocean Blue � 1670 Lamb, Barely, Apple � 1781 Dakota Bison � 1673 Wilderness Elk � 1673 Southwest Chicken � 1790 Black Forest � 1605 Wellness: Chicken Formula � 1623 Lamb Formula � 1591 Whitefish Formula � 1595 Core � 1636 Core Ocean � 1636 I had to e-mail a bunch of companies to get the info because it wasn't on the site. I'm waiting for information from the following Purina, By Nature, Natura, Eagle Pack, Good Life, Kibbles N' Bits, Natural Balance, Nature's Logic, Nature's Recipe, Nature's Variety, Nutro, Pedigree, Royal Canin, and Solid Gold.

♥Cade- nce

Springers jump- for joy.

Barked: Mon May 12, '08 2:08am PST


	So, Cade at 49lbs needs around 738 calories a day. So, how many cups or ounces of Innova EVO large bites does she need a day? 2 cups = 1 lb 8oz =1 cup Edited by author Mon May 12, '08 2:10am PST

	So, do I give her about four fifths of a cup a day? Innova EVO = 1835/2 = 917.5 cal / cup. 738 calories / (917.5 calories / cup)) = 0.804 cups. About four-fifths of a cup. Edited by author Mon May 12, '08 2:31am PST

	I'd love to know Solid Gold (especially Barking at the moon or Mmillenia beef barley) when you find out--i'm switching foods and this is one brand i'm considering!

	Sedona, you have entirely too much time on your paws!!!! But it's a fabulous list. You should post the calories/lb of Kirkland as well, I think a lot of Dogsters use that. I used to, and switched to Canidae...for two 70lb dogs it wound up being like 20 cents more a day.

	Sedona, thanks for this formula.. My moms are always worrying that I'm not eating enough. I'm a grazer. But if your formula is correct, I'm actually getting plenty to eat!

	Thank you everyone!! Sorry it took so long for a reply. 1229 ish...sounds about right for what he's been getting. I have to make sure I save that math formula so that I can rely on it. In Ocean City MD it's 54.25 for a 26.9 lb bag (the big bag) of Orijen adult. Cat and Canine Comforts also has a deal going where after you buy 8 bags you get one free (I am pretty sure it's 8 it might be ten).

	An 8oz cup is a measurement of volume not weight.
