There are 5 girls in my pack from 1 year to 7 years old. They eat in the morning (little bit of canned along with kibble) and then more kibble in the evening. At noon, they get baby carrots or a little bit of fruit or yogart.
Mine are all super healthy. Puppies should eat more often but not necessary more food. I would suggest dividing up the recommended serving into several smaller meals during the day.
