Those with larger size dogs how long does a 28oz bag last? My dog is 65lbs I'm trying to get an idea of what to expect.

Without having a bag's feeding instructions according to weight in front of me (in between orders), I would suggest you find another type of food only for the reason this food would cost you a bundle to use as the primary food. I use it as a supplement for variety. For my dog, their suggestion is to feed (16-20 lbs) about 8 nuggets daily as the only food. Believe me, no matter what size package...it does not last very long. When I get my order, I will be glad to add to your question with some facts but again, I think this particular brand would cost you a bundle to feed a 65 pound dog.

According to the package, you would feed about 25 pucks a day and it would not last long.

If you go to Primal Foods website there is a calculator based on size and age. Also, the customer service lady, Angie, is always happy to answer any questions if you call the company phone number listed on their website.

Hi CNG: Our dog is about the same size and we use about one 14oz bag of Primal Freeze-Dried every six days. We also supplement his Primal Pet Food meals (2X per day) with a cup and a half of organic French cut green beans, broccoli or asparagus. I hope this helps!

I didn't know this brand/flavor (my dogs love it) came in a 4 lb bag until I checked it out. If you didn't order the 4-lb. bag, I would have it sent back at no cost to you and re-order the 25-lb. bag . Good luck, Jennifer

My dog is 40 pounds and I give her 1 large per day but if I need an extra one I will give her a half to start. Advantage to the large size, you can always break it in half and if you need the whole one you would have it available.

My wife and I have a 65lb pitbull and we feed our dog about a cup and a half twice a day (3 cups per day total) A bag lasts us about a month and a half

I really like this bag. My dog not so much. He doesn't like being restricted. It does come in handy. The bottom of bag is hard for support but there is a fake sheep skin insert that covers the actual bottom of the bag. The insert can be removed to be washed. Sherpa makes the best protective bags in my opinion. My dog weighs 6 pounds and has plenty of room to move around that is why I went with the medium bag. Good luck on your decision. Hope this helped.

It lasts for several months, depending upon the size you purchase. I have several dogs so I get the larger size for dogs (but not the largest) and it lasts me at least three months.

How large a dog? My dog is smaller than a lab (about 65 lbs in her younger days), and she fits, but a bit snugly. The back does open and I place treats inside to get her to hop in with her front feet, then I have to help her back end up and help her lay down (she's 16.5 years old and has arthritis). Hope that helps!

The bag is very strong and the instructions say it will hold up to 40 lbs. 22 lbs should not be a problem. My dogs weigh a combined 16 lbs and the bag holds up fine with both of them in it; however, it is it bit cramped with both dogs inside the bag and I have never flown with them in one bag. You may want to do a test run, maybe a car trip, with both cats in the one bag before flying just to make sure they will fit comfortable for a long period of time.

Wow! No idea! I would contact the company, as it suggested that it will last for years. Is there any chance there's a hole or rip in it? Maybe that let air in, but I'm just guessing. I still have the one I purchased, but my dog was only able to use it for a few weeks before she passed. I wish you all the best solving this issue! :)

My dog is about 20 lbs and does great. I am careful not to go to fast and to take lots of breaks. I don't get that much exercise, but she sure does!

I would contact Sherpa and ask for their recommendations. I have a 16 pounder that does fine in it. But it would depend on how tall your pet is, if he/she is a chewer, scratcher, etc -- since it's not a hard side carrier it is not indestructible if you have a determined, strong chewer. Some breeds of dogs have bigger teeth than others the same size -- terriers for example have big teeth for dogs their size/weight.

Not sure why. But I buy the 12 lb bag, which is a much better deal per pound. The 12 lb bag was $26 in Sept, then $30 in Dec, and now it's $32. So it went up too, though not as much as the 7 lb bag. I'd recommend switching to the 12 lb bag. For $2 more you get almost twice as much! You can always put half the bag in a container to keep it fresh, so it doesn't go stale. I have a 17 lb terrier mix, and I just use the whole bag with him, closing it tight each time. Works fine.

My dogs are 80lbs and 140lbs. They each have a Benebone and are doing fine with them. My daughter's two dogs are 80lbs and 90lbs and doing ok with them. Both are chronic chewers of stolen items. We're each keeping an eye on the dogs with their bones. I believe that a bigger bone is in the works.

I would say 25 - 30. I feed my 10 lb dog 3 a day and a bag usually lasts about 2+weeks.

I have a 76# Golden Retriever and the bag does a great job cleaning up after him ... the only thing I used to like better were the bags the newspaper came in - you could put your arm in, retriever the product, turn the bag inside out and tie it off. Bags for the paper are now filmsy and much smaller as newspapers are quickly disappearing. For a Medium to Large dog walked 3-4 times a day they do the trick better than any I've used. I didn't go dig out a bag to measure but 10" h plus handles and 6" w seems about wide and they open between 4-5" - it's a great product especially for the price!

I've been buying the one-pound bag for years, 3 pounds at a time. (I'm wicked addicted.) I keep them frozen, and don't notice any deterioration over a three-month period. About once a week I put enough in a sealed jar to last me about the week.
