Is 150 gm a day enough for a dalmation?
14 year old female dalmation, previously I fed her twice a day. Now on dried dog food 150gm = 5 ounces once a day, I don't know what make of dog food. Is this enough? Dog has lost a LOT of weight on the back quarters.
the brand is Dr Johns Gold.

Dalmatians usually eat very quickly and most seem to be always
hungry, and as a result do not do well with self-feeding. This can
lead to overweight dogs with higher incidences of medical problems
later in life. Adult Dals should be fed either once or twice
(preferred) a day,from 3 to 6 cups total, depending on their weight
and activity level. Some adult females do well on as little as 2
cups of food per day.

I guess it depends on your dog food but I used to feed my dalmatian 3 cups of food (Iams large breed) in 2 feedings.
You should consult your vet. but she should weight around 40-45lbs. at the most.
Your so lucky to still own her after 14 years! I had mine almost 11 years. He developed bone cancer and I had him put down.
He had a good size not overweight or underweight about 60 lbs.

We feed our pup 300g a day divided into 3 meals. Since that's a large adult assuming more than 25kg in weight then you may need to feed him some more.
