What do you feed/how much?

Premade raw that contains everything. Blood, organ, bone and meat. It's vile. We get lots of variety - chicken, beef, oily fish, rabbit, whatever is seasonal etc. Plus they get raw bones - duck wings, turkey necks, ribs etc. Plus a few squirts of salmon oil.
They also get biscuits as treats. We aren't food obsessive. Far from it lol raw just works for us.

Seamus is 17 lbs., 9.5 years old, and gets about 1/2 cup of Canine Caviar.
Paris is 24 lbs., 11 months old, and gets about 2 cups of Acana, typically Pork and Butternut squash. It can vary depending on whether or not we use a lot of treats that day. They also get various wet food mixed in (Ziwipeak, Canine Caviar, or Wellness usually).

The older boys get Fromm grain free, variety varies
Jack is 45lbs and gets 1 cup 2x a day
Crossbone, 22lbs, eats 1/2 c 2x a day
Pox, 11weeks & 7lbs, eats a mix of VerUS Puppy and Fromm Puppy. I fill his bowl up in the morning so he free feeds all day (I usually fill it up again at lunch) and works for his dinner at night. He's skinny and I'm not worried about the free feeding right now but eventually he will be on a more regulated schedule.

Jackson
18lbs
fixed
1/2 cup of kibble per day (on pretty much whatever kibble we are feeding - currently Acana Duck). In the summer when he swims a lot, I will often up it to 2/3 cup per day. Also a spoonful or so of wet food or whatever extras I've got laying around.
He gets some kind of chew a few times a week (bully stick, etc) and a dentastix almost every night plus treats.

Auggie, 14.5lbs
scant 1/4cup twice a day
Pepper, 17lbs
scant 1/3rd cup twice a day
Payton, 20lbs
heaping 1/3rd cup twice a day
Everybody has been on TOTW bison formula but just today I picked up Earthborn Holistics Great Plains for the olders and Primitive Natural to try with Payton. I'm hoping the higher protein/fat content might actually get him to gain a pound or two... we'll see! If it doesn't really do much I might switch everybody to the Great Plains.
