I'm finding this to be true so far, none of my dogs are overweight and they range from 2 lbs 9 ozs to 83 lbs. (4 Yorkies and 1 Golden Retriever). They only get their dog food (I leave dry food and water out all day) and a couple treats a day and they get plenty of exercise. He did say a feeding schedule was a good way to train a puppy to pee pads or to go out. Do you find this mostly to be true? | Interesting, thanks!
