The chart printed on every Loyal Saints bag puts a 110 lb dog at 6½ cups a day as a complete meal. That is about 1,495 calories, and it is the number to trust over any percentage rule you have read.
One correction worth making, because it is the most common mistake in raw feeding: the familiar 2–3% of body weight guideline describes fresh raw, which is roughly three-quarters water. Applying it to what you scoop from a freeze-dried bag would badly overfeed your dog. Freeze-dried has the water removed — the amount you measure is far smaller.
At Halo Club pricing, feeding a 110 lb dog entirely on freeze-dried raw costs $30.00 a day, about $912.00 a month, and a 14 oz bag lasts 1.2 days.

Most people at this size feed a quarter of the bowl. 1⅔ cups of Loyal Saints over their existing food is $7.50 a day — real raw nutrition in every meal without replacing the whole diet.
Freeze-drying removes water, not food. That is why a small scoop is not a small meal, and why the quarter-bowl approach works rather than being a compromise.
Adjust to body condition, always. You should be able to feel your dog's ribs without seeing them.
