Question
My 86lb lab has been put on a chicken and rice diet while he is taking steroids.  How much should I be giving him? I feed him twice a day.

I think you should consult your veterinarian to determine how much your dog should  be eating.  Since I am not familiar with your dog or its physical condition, I would rather not give you specifics on how much he should be eating.
