The Animal Medical Center of Chicago has a chart showing the daily caloric intake for dogs of a variety of weights, ages and status. According to the chart, an 8 pound dog younger than 4 months should eat 552 calories of food each day. If that same dog is an non-neutered adult, his calorie count drops dramatically, to 331 calories per day. Puppies require a higher number of calories because of the amount of growing they do in their first year.
