I am not sure what to tell you in regards to lowering the amount of food that he is getting; but maybe you could start feeding him about 1 1/4 cup a day into two meals and see how it goes. Pups will be a bit pudgy and then once they hit the 10 month mark, they seem to slim down and you should be able to see a definite waist.

I know with Cody, he gained weight at a steady pace of about 1 pound a week until he was 6 months old and then weighed 23 pounds. Is your Koda sort of gaining at that same rate?

If so, then by 6 months, he could easily weigh around 26 pounds.

Cody gets two walks a day - about 2 miles in the morning and about 1 1/12 miles in the evening along with some play time during the day and I still try to stick to the 1 cup a day, with maybe 2 dog food biscuits a day. Some days I give him veggies and fruits also(just a few) and other days, plain yogurt also) I switched him to adult dog food at 8 months old. I think Cody will end up being around 28 pounds as an adult.

I think vets will have various opinions in regards to when to switch your dog to adult food, but I don't think many vets understand the Corgi appetite and how easily they can become overweight.
