I tried to schedule feed Peanut- Sometimes in the morning he wouldn't eat.. then I would come home and he threw up bile.. same with at evening feeding. Sometimes he just wouldn't eat or just eat a couple tablespoons at a time- So that didn't work for him. With his food/weight/age/ energy level he should get ¼ of a cup a day- so I will give him 1/8 in the morning and a 1/8 when I get home from work. He usually has all of his morning food gone by the time I get home, or he will finish it when I get home- Then I give him his evening amount- he will usually finish that and if I see him looking in his bowl I will grab a handful xtra and he will nibble it.
I think as far as feeding you have to do what works for your dog. If it is schedule feedings or free feeds- as long as they get the amount of food they need.
