[QUOTE=YorkieRose;3447540]I have 36 yrs of breeding under my belt..puppies in the 8 week age range should be fed high quality dog food 3 times per day, plus training treats...and they should not be limited in amounts at meal time...no puppy eats unless it is hungry. Dogs are not like us humans, eating out of boredom, depression, emotional eating etc..they eat because they are HUNGRY!
I agree with Buster's mom. I don't think every dog can be offered unlimited food. My shih tuz is over weight. Now, it may be in part because I used to "free feed" .. but I have NEVER seen him turn down food. Saying that... puppies must be fed enough for proper growth.
