My non-expert opinion is do whatever works for your dog. I don't believe in force feeding or removing food if not eaten within 20 minutes.
However, I do think it is healthier to divide the food into at least 2 meals per day, rather than 1 large meal. Just like humans, I think animals are better off eating small amounts at regular intervals. It's better for digestion, sugar and insulin levels, and all the rest. I look at food the same way I do water; I wouldn't consume my entire daily allowance at one sitting. |
