Answer
It would be best to cut out everything but the Pedigree.  Slowly reduce everything and increase the Pedigree.  For another month he needs 3 meals a day.  A half cup to a full cup should be about right.  It is important to keep him lean.  You should be feeding a puppy chow now. Switching to an adult chow for the larger breeds at 4 months, slows growth and helps develop sturdier joints.

Your dog definitely should be narrower at the waist than the hips and chest. You should be able to easily feel the ribs, but not see them. Each dog is different. Standard recommendations are a good place to start, but each dog must have its food and exercise adjusted to its individual needs.
