It has always been my understanding to never follow the "recommended amount" on a food bag for a Corgi.

I will tell you that when Cody was 5 months old, he weighed 19 pounds and at 6 months he weighed about 23 pounds. Once he hit the 6 month age, the rate at which he gained weight dropped significantly. Cody gets fed about 1 cup of food a day and it is broken up into three meals. He also gets some treats and fruits and veggies at times.

He is now 10 months old and weighs 26 pounds. He has been maintaining this weight for quite some time now. I don't think you can judge what your dog should weigh based on what others weigh because of the various different sizes of Corgis that we all have and the different activity level they may have.

How much exercise does he get?
