Once in a while, they used to wake up an hour or two before the normal breakfast time and vomit. Our vet said that it may be because their stomach was empty. Since we started adding the small (very small) bedtime treat, they don't do this anymore. They are both a healthy weight. We just divide the daily portion by three. We are actually transitioning from Ziwi Peak to Primal this week. How is Primal working for you? The pups love it but they liked the Ziwi Peak too. This food thing is such a puzzle for us too. Good luck!

My boys are fed 3 times a day too. Like you, I never successfully altered the puppy schedule. When I tried to reduce meals to 2 a day, Max would roll on his back all afternoon like I was starving him to death. Teddy is a waif with a fast-paced system. He has to have little meals or treats throughout the day or he will throw up bile in the morning.
My boys do better with smaller, more frequent meals.
