| What's your eating routine? How many times a day and what time of day do your fur butts eat? Zoey wants to play right out of bed first , will not eat till she plays....sometimes that's not till 11:00! Then won't eat till bedtime around 8 or 9. Is that wierd?... |

| She's active. My Darla has a small amount 1/4 cup of dry kibble she free feeds on but that will take her at least a week to go through. About 6:30 every morning though she gets 2tbs of dry mixed with a small amount of wet and hot water. My home is pretty quiet in the mornings and our mornings start at 4:30 with my special needs son. She generally go back to sleep on my lap of my bubba isn't cuddling with me or she go lay on the other couch. She'll do this until I get up for my shower and get ready or work |

| Jackson's schedule is really random to be honest. Sometimes he will want to eat breakfast right when he wakes up and comes inside from pottying. I typically will always put 1/4 cup (half of his daily kibble) into his bowl in the AM to give him the option. Sometimes he just wants to go back to bed and won't eat until after noon. Dinner is fairly consistent though. I would say it's always between 5:30-7pm and he gets 1/4 kibble plus some wet food, and sometimes supplements of some kind (dental powder, salmon oil, etc). But, basically eats 2x a day. With treats in between.

| Meal 1 is between 6am and 4pm. Meal 2 is between 5pm and 3am. Orrrrr if she won't stop bugging me... She is 5.8 pounds. Each meal is a handful of food probably around 1/3 cup. That was probably very non helpful.

| My 10 month old Gizmo is almost 6 lbs and eats at random throughout the day. My babygirl Roxy is 8 weeks old and is up at 7am on the button for her breakfast and has her supper between 6 or 7pm. It's like clockwork. And if I leave Gizmo's food down she eats it. She's my little piggy. Lol |

| Breakfast: 5 - 6 am Lunch: 11 am Dinner: 4 pm Max started the 4 pm thing when he was a pup. I've tried making him wait and he acts like he is starving to death.

| Huey gets breakfast around 0730 after I get off work. Sometimes later if I am late getting home or if I slept at night, since I am not an early riser. Dinner is more consistant at 1700 (5pm) every day. Now, just because I put down food at those times does not mean he actually eats then. I leave it out & he usually eventually gets it eaten throughout the day, sometimes at once, sometimes a piece at a time. If the bowl is still full (if you can call 1/4 cup full) at the next mealtime, I just leave it & skip until the next one. He does get little treats during the day.

YT 2000 Club Member | dog I feed my boys three times a day. Their tummies are small and I do believe they need to have food in those tummies so I measure out their food in the am and feed them at 5am, 12noon and again at 5pm or so. I think the larger dogs can go longer but these little guys need the fuel. I cannot leave it free feed because Spud will eat too much, look like a little blimp. |
