The OP is working nights, do you get up and feed your 6 month old healthy puppies at night? If the OP's dog is eating 2-3 times during the day, I don't think withholding food only during the night will hurt.

Also, your suggestion that Lesley wait to get a dog is not really beneficial as she already has the pup and is looking for advice on what to do now.

Well what is the puppy doing while she is sleeping after those 12 hours shifts? seriously..It's to long
