It depends on what dry food you are thinking of giving her, as each food differs in how much you give them. x x x

At 6 wks of age she should be fed 4/5 times per day. 
Not sure about the actual food weight as it does depend on which kibble she is having.  :-\
If you can't read the feeding instructions i would go with perhaps 50 gms per meal & see how she gets on with that.
Poor wee little mite being just left in your porch  :o thank goodness you are caring for her.  :luv:

It's not every day a puppy is left in someone's porch.  Was it you who took her to the vet?  Poor little thing, but at least that was better than shoving her in a shelter.
