At the moment they both get chicken quarters and lamb bones and have been fine although Willow's poo has gone green but still formed once or twice with the lamb, these are as occasional meal replacements.
It is 2-3% of the expected adult body weight...it is all rough measurements, so you could start with the 3% and if this seems too much, judge by eye as to how they look and then reduce if needed.

So 28kg = somewhere in the region of 560-840g per day...as you have a pup, you would want to split this into a couple of meals a day (or however many you are feeding at the mo depending on age)
