Feeding the adult Great Dane The dog’s food should consist of a minimum of 23% protein and 12% fat. In terms of quantity, adult males should receive 8 to 10 cups daily and females, 6 to 8 cups.

You can expect your Great Dane to eat between 8-10 cups (1.89-2.3L) of dog food daily. This is most common when he is in his growth spurt phase. He may even eat more than that in some instances! Once he matures, your Great Dane will eat closer to 6-10 cups (1.41-2.36L) of food per day.

From 8 to 12 months, feed males 6 to 10 cups of food and females, 5 to 8 cups. Adolescent Danes, aged 1 to 2 years, eat more than at any other time of life: 8 cups of food daily for females and 9 to 15 cups for males. At this rate, at 8 oz a cup, this amounts to 4200 oz a month, or 206¼ lbs.

The size of the poop depends on several factors Probably the dog that takes the biggest poop is the Great Dane: its stool is estimated to weigh about 500-700 gr. The St. Bernard, however, beats it in frequency and quantity: in a year it poops much more often, about 180 kg more.

Most puppies eat three to four meals a day while they’re growing and they’ll have to pee and poop after each meal. For younger dogs, wait about 20 minutes after a meal to take him outside to potty.

How Long Wait To Walk or Exercise Dog After Eating? According to The Vet, a leading veterinary healthcare center, you should not let the dog play or exercise (e.g. go for a walk) for at least two hours after having a meal to avoid health risks.

After the meal, only wait between 5 and 30 minutes to take your puppy outside. The younger the puppy, the sooner they should be brought out after a meal to potty. As the puppy grows older, they will gain bladder control and learn to hold it longer each day.
