Hi & welcome to the forum!

At 6 months you could probably reduce her meals to two a day. I feed raw, so I can't comment on the amount you feed, but if you're at all worried that she isn't getting enough, increase the amounts a little & just watch to see if she puts on weight. Don't forget that a slim dog is more healthy than a fat one!

He looks fine to me

She does look a toutch on the lean side, but to be honest at that age they still gotta do all their filling out. First 6 months they just shoot up and look quite thin. Then fill out for the next 12 months and gain very little height. So she is at the age where she may look a little on the lean side.

Generally the rule is you should be able to feel their ribs but not see them. Though you will find if they are drinking or something they often have a funny posture which sometimes shows their ribs a little.

What amounts does it say to feed on that food at that age an weight? Although that is only a guideline. I would try a little more and just keep a keen eye on it if you do though literally like 20g a day at the very most. As they get older the amount is ment to be reduces slightly and you could end up over feeding if you raise it to much now.

she looks ok to me, but the images are mainly of her eating, which when they eat the stand a certain way which seems to make there ribs stand out and when theyre drinking etc too.
You could always get piece of mind by going to the vet and asking them to weigh her to make sure she is an ideal weight, that way if she is under you know to feed her more etc.
when skye was younger she looked pretty skinny especially because she was a poorly pup but when i took her the vets i asked if i could have her weight monitored and the vet nurse weighed her and said she was an ideal weight for her age.
piece of mind

hi its says up 5-10kg which im guessing she is about 10kg really i should get her weighed its says 250-400 gram a day so what i mite do is make it 130 each feeding and she how she gets on from there

How i do it, if you can see ribs she under weight if you cant feel ribs she over weight.

looks lovely and enjoying the dinner by the looks of it LOL

She looks good to me but maybe a little thin.
