How long does it take you to go through a bag of food?

hmmmm.... you know I don't really know! and now I don't feed kibble anymore.
When I had just keeda, I would buy the 18lb Merrick bags, and I seemed to have them for close to 2 months???
Then I added Bailey, and I think they maybe lasted 2 weeks? Then I switched foods a few times and started buy the 40lb bags, and I'd say they lasted about a month.
Now that I feed raw, and since I don't have a large freezer, I usually only buy enough for a week.

We buy a 40 pound bag of Kirkland Signature. It lasts about 2 weeks, sometimes 3. And I have 11 dogs (7 dachshunds ranging from 7 pounds to 20 pounds, 1 Chihuahua who weighs roughly 3 pounds, 1 JRT mix weighing 10 pounds, 1 Rat terrier/Chihuahua weighing 6 pounds, and 1 poodle/eh don't really know mix lol weighing about 10 pounds).
I have 3 small dogs and buy 6.6 lbs bag of EVO red meat small bites for them. I really don't pay attention on how long it lasts, its a bit over a month. I also feed EVO can food, not every day but a few times a week with occasional raw meat.
Where I get my food they have this reward system that gives me a free bag of food after the 10th bag and my last one was free..woo!

We have four dogs, but that's not really relevant as they all eat different things.
It takes Winston a little over 5 weeks to go through a 40lb bag of Kirkland Lamb & Rice. He gets 2 1/4 cups per day. He's a large dog (75lbs), but very low energy, so he doesn't need much.
When she was being fed NOW, it took Keira 2 weeks to go through a 25lb (or was it 30?) bag. She was eating 6 cups a day. Now she's on California Natural chicken & rice, which is a 35lb bag I think, so it'll probably last about a month or a little more as she only has to eat 4 and a bit cups a day of it.
The Tollers were on raw, but due to money situations and Dance's intolerance to so many different things, they're on California Natural Herring & Sweet Potato for the time being (they'll be switched back to raw in a month or two probably). I bought a 20lb bag with both eating just under 2 cups per day. Not sure how long it'll last, but hopefully close to a month.

I feed Taste of the Wild. I have four dogs, but only three eat that food. Two Chows (50 and 60 (ish) lbs respectively) and a yorkie. A 15 lb bag lasts 2 weeks.
Ginger (8 lb poodle mix) eats Natural Balance Venison and Sweet Potato canned, and a case lasts 2 months, at least. And that's with sometimes snitching a bit of her food as treats for the boys.

Currently we are on our way to finishing a 40 lb bag of Diamond Naturals, between the three girls (2 60 lbs and 1 6 lbs) it lasted about a month and a half.
I just brought home some EVO RM small bites for the two big girls, and they'll be getting 2 - 2 1/2 cups a day each. If I get Noodle in on the EVO, she'll get 2/3 a cup a day. Cross your fingers that Jeremy will continue to let me buy it at $65 for a 28 lb bag

Blaze is 5.5 years old 60lbs. I feed kirkland, a 40lbs bag usually last around 2 months give or take (I bought a bag on October 5th, and now we just passed the half way point int he bag). He gets 2 cups a day, maybe more depening if we do more then we normally do in a day. He is very active and does daily offleash hikes for about a hour, then plays ball or about a hour, and what ever other time at the park is spent playing with other dogs.
he also gets a few raw bones a week just for the fun in them to him. plus keeps his teeth nice and clean.
