At 12 weeks, most clinical nutritional guidelines state that pups should be fed at a minimum of 3 times a day, if not more. Their stomachs are very small and they burn kcalories at a higher rate than an adult dog.
I personally believe in free feeding kibble. I have always done it with all of mine and never had a problem with their weight.
What rationale did the vet give you for two feedings? Is there some outstanding medical issue still going on?
