I'm starting the switch process tonight AND we decided to get both dogs on a feeding schedule... we'll see how the feeding schedule goes! LOL

I'll occasionally feed him closer to 1/4 cup, or I will feed him 1/8 cup three times a day, just depending on his activity level!

Good luck finding what works for your guys!
Thanks! That helps in deciding how much to feed Chippy, who is just a little bigger than Levi. He ranges between 7-8 lbs.

Jackson is so cute! Love the picture! He does look a little like Smokey. I bet the two of them being the speed-demons they are, would have a blast together. Although, since Smokey's gotten a little older, he's less active. He'll be four in April and has calmed down some... but still, I bet if he had another active pup with him, he'd start flying.

I've been told that sometimes Orijen can make dogs poop a little less and when they do it is smaller and firm. I think it's because of the protein or the ingredients of the food, but I could be wrong. Maybe someone else can come on and answer your question better.
