Carrie - I feed my girls a good breakfast, and then a good dinner. They do have water down all day, and they do have a little "treat dispenser" that they have to work at to get a treat out while I'm at work. I don't free feed because the girls share a room, and if I left food down all the time, Bridget would for sure eat most of it....hungry or not, and Greta would be left with little. At that point I wouldn't know who had what. Before Greta came to me - I free fed Bridget (well not totally FREE-fed because she'd eat until she'd burst - but I would leave some kibble down all day) - and gradually got her on a schedule of sorts. If they seemed overly hungry at either meal - I would definitely make different arrangements, but this seems to be working.....at least for now. My girls are both 15 months old and 5 and 7lbs - I think that is a factor as well. |
