I'm thinking she might sleep longer, if I gave them a later meal...And don't even think about feeding that 5:30 p.m. meal later, 'cause she starts "cuttin' up" about 5, and doesn't stop 'till I feed her...By cuttin up, I mean, she beats everybody up, 'cause she's getting hungry and irritable (I think lol)...After supper, she settles down...Actually, I tried Acana (which I think is the best on the planet, and they all seemed to struggle w/it, and don't think they really liked it...I'm only doing solid gold, because they all love it...I'll try Fromm...They didn't like NV instinct, either ...You're right, this food conundrum is a hot topic w/these little guys lol...

Each one of my dogs are fed differently. Some are on 2 x a day and other's are on 3 x a day. Dependent on their energy level and size. My high energy, hyper active ones that burn up calories and don't gain weight are on 3 x. My wee ones, because of their small size and smaller tummies are on 3 x or 4 x a day. Those of average weight and energy are on 2 x. What I feed is Merrick before grain.
