| Food question... Hey guys! I have a question. I switched my Gizmo's food from Purina puppy chow (which was mostly corn? seriously) to Purina One puppy (which is mostly meat) and he seems to be doing good. I leave a little dry in his dish all the time, because he goes back and nibbles. But, I have started mixing it with wet canned food 2x a day (about 1/3 of a tuna size can). He absolutely loves this. Does this sound like the right amount to feed him? He is 11wks old and weighed 4.2 lbs at his doc visit the other day...(and Praise God for Revolution, cuz the nasty few fleas are GONE!!) |

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | I do like free feeding for puppies...so I'm a fan of what you're doing w/ the kibble. As for the wet...hmmm...I'd look at the label, there should be a feeding guide on there. A 1/3rd can twice a day may be a bit much, but...? Take a look at the can, maybe, and see if has a little guidance.

Yeah, I looked, but it didn't have any guide on it. 1/3 of the can equals maybe 1 and 1/2 tablespoons.. they are small flat cans. Thanks for the your imput!! | |
