I have found that dogs on a raw diet carry their weight very differently than the same dog would on kibble.
A kibble dog who looks like a couch potato or "Chunk" from The Goonies will look more like a star athlete or Arnold Schwarzenegger on raw.
Rather than bulk, a raw diet should produce lean muscle mass. Granted, lacking exercise can produce fat no matter the diet.
Also keep in mind that each dog is different as are their metabolisms. I have some dogs who require 2.5% of their body weight per day in feed and I have one who gets 5%. Don't be afraid to adjust their volumes up and down until you find the correct % for each dog.
