Default What is YOUR yorkie's schedule?

Ok, so some of you have replied to my "poo eating" thread, and here is the problem: Uno poops in the middle of the night, so obviously I can't get to it before he can. His schedule is usually as follows:

7:00am- go out to potty, come in and eat 1/8th royal canin babydog food. (he sometimes doesn't eat it all, and I take it away after he has lost interest and put that towards the 1/8th cup he will get at lunch. I'm not giving him 1/8th PLUS that food, it is part of the 1/8th). We then go outside again. ***usually poops

1:00pm- feed lunch, 1/8th cup we go outside. Will usually poop...(poop usually between 1 and 3...)


5-6- in between here we have supper...1/8th cup again. After this point we don't see a poo during all the breaks we take outside....so we know that he'll take a crap in the middle of the night

I pull the food and water around 7-8ish at night. (I pull the food when he loses interest)

My breeder recommended the 1/8th cup, is he eating too much?? I've heard that if they poop 2-3 times a day that's normal, but over that and you're over feeding.

Question: Will you guys please tell me what your schedules are and the poop times?? I'm thinking maybe I should feed earlier? I don't know...I just don't want him waking up hungry. . .but. . .I don't want him eating his poop while we're sleeping!!!
