I can't remember what ours was at that age...But, he's only 48 lbs at 12 months. But our guy went a couple months picking at his food even though we tried everything! I think we finally found some food he likes and he's putting on weight. But anyways...
If you see her ribs when she's just standing there, I'd up the food.
If you don't see ribs but see a waist when you stand over her then she's good! Also, when they're a normal weight, you can feel their ribs when petting them, but not see them.
If you don't see a waist or ribs, then she's overweight. But I imagine this is not the case since she's still a pup!!! And she will have growth spurts when you'll need to feed her more.
Remember, V's are the smaller of the sporting dogs like Weims, GSPs, Pointers. Adult female V's should range between 40-50lbs.
Are you new to V's?

). there have been days though where i think back and can't even remember if she ate more than 3 kibbles. we have tried the whole only put her food down morning and night around the same time (as in setting up a schedule and strictly following it) and if she messes around and doesn't eat it within 15 minutes, then pick the food up and don't feed her again til the next set feeding time..so..it's quite frustrating!
