Coops, it of course depends on what else is being fed with the beef BUT overall I say "well said", I have to admit to being rather surprised (to say the least) when I saw the advice of "a pound" for a 35kg dog (the RSPCA should be called in). A pound of beef supplemented by 4 ozs of dry kibble (evening meal) would generally be sufficient for an extremely small bitch (yeh like a whippet), not a 35kg dog. The advice from Lily... and Nick is pretty good.
