| Love HowHow many times a day do you feed your adult Yorkie I just adopted a 15 month old Yorkie girl and her owner say she feeds her once a day in the morning. I am wondering if this is enough because the guy at the pet store told me that that's just not right and that she should be fed twice a day. I also read in the Yorkie for dummies book that feeding is supposed to be twice a day.. May I ask you guys how much do you feature Yorkie or better yet how many times a day do you feed and what time. Thank you so much! |

| I feed twice a day. My Teasell will be 8 years old in Oct. She is very active and get 1/3 of a cup in the morning and another 1/3 in the evening. Hope this helps, each furball is different so pay attention if she looks like she needs more or less....Teasell's Mom |

| Also Twice a day. Cut the total amount of food to be given in half, feed 1/2 in the morning and 1/2 at night. For my 5 yo 12 pound boy he gets 1/3 cup at 6:30am and 1/3 cup at 4:30PM. Treat at 8PM AFTER he has gone through ALL his commands and tricks.

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | I would not feed a dog just once a day. Twice is the least I'd ever feed.
