People feed three times a day for several reasons, when they are smaller the more frequent meals help prevent hypoglycemia or low blood sugar, but once they are over 4 pounds, they are not as much of a risk for that. Another reason people free feed or feed three times a day is because the dog has chronic pancreatitis, and the more frequent feedings help prevent indigestion. Brutus is at the age he can go on adult food and have only 2 feedings a day, if that's what you prefer.
