Raw food diet

I have a 10 week old English mastiff. I’ve been giving him 2.5 pounds of raw meat and vegetables a day. Which is 10% of his body weight. And he still acts like he’s starving. Should I feed him more?

In my experience (Raw feeding 14 years) most dogs want more food. I do not believe there is a need to increase his food, 10% body weight is good for now. Pay attention to his condition as this will be the best indicator if more / less food is required.
As he is a giant breed to protect his joints I would keep him as lean as possible.
Can you post a photo of him and also of one of his meals ?
