Ellie was free fed until Rylee came. Now she is fed twice a day just like him. No problem with it for either dog. Some days they get a treat or two and some days they don't. Unless your pups are very small, very young, or there is an underlying health issue, feeding 3x daily should not be necessary. I mean, maybe some dogs will do better on it, but then I'd wonder what is going on. Even small dogs should be able to eat just 2x daily.

I/D is fine for a healthy dog, but haven't there been some opinions about it being not very filling? I would take the healthy pup off of it and try an adult maintenance food. Puppy food is high in fat. I wouldn't be excited to do that. My pups are fed different foods and we do fine. They each get what they do well on.
