I Bring home chicken fat from work.Normally a grocery bag full every other day sometimes half that. Im wondering how to incorperate it in a keep? Do I need to go by weight of the dog or what? Please give your thoughts. Thanks

It would be a percentage of what you are already feeding. Just figure what you are feeding percentage wise as far as proteins, fats or carbs. I would ditch just about all the carbs and substitute it with the chicken fat.

If you feed as daily maintenance, it would continue to serve you well in a keep.

BSK, how much do you feed of it now? In a keep, you would probably need to increase it some as the work rate increases. So, I'd use whatever amount you feed now as a baseline.
