Sorry I can't help you as I'm in the same boat with my little doxie Dixie. Before we got her we would sorta free feed Max. I would break his daily portion into 3 servings but he would always have food in his bowl except at night that I would put it up. Sometimes I would give him his morning portion at 6am and at 2pm he still had it in his bowl. Once we got Dixie it was a different story she would eat hers and his so I've had to feed them on a schedule. She gained weight so quickly so the vet told me to control her feedings. She was 3 months and already 6lbs which was to much weight on her small body. Max is very good about it, it seems it doesn't bother him much but Dixie devours her food within seconds and then tries to eat Max's food. So once you find what works for you let me know so maybe I can try it with my two. |
