How much rice can my dog eat daily?

Most dog foods contain the correct daily amount of calories and nutrients that your dog needs for optimum health. That means rice can only comprise 10% of their daily caloric intake. Give them more than that and you risk weight gain or diabetes. Large dogs can eat about ⅓ cup of rice two or three times per week.
