We used to free feed, because Kensington was always a "snacker". However, we've had to switch to scheduled feeding, because Paddington never lost all her pregnancy weight and is still a pound or so over-weight. Since they aren't as young and energetic as they used to be, we had to put them on a lite food and less of it at the recommendation of our Vet. The puppies do fine on the schedule - we just have to make sure our bigger one doesn't over-eat while our tiniest is getting enough. It seems to be working better now than the free feed.
