[Sweetums]

We've been feeding our puppy about every 4 hours since we got her. She's a very picky eater, so we've had to go thru at least a dozen different dog foods and she's never eaten very much of anything. Several times I felt she was sliding into hypoglycemia and got her started eating again by giving her Karo syrup or feeding her a few treats with honey on them. We feed her canned on schedule and leave crunchies down all day. But she hardly ever touches her crunchies and never has, hence the wet food feedings.

So for weeks when she was teething, she hardly ate at all. We even cooked her dinners: liver, chicken, ground lamb, ground venison, ground bisson, ground veal. Sprinkled them with parmesan, or put Iams puppy sauce on when she stopped eating after a couple of days on one kind. Fed her uncooked baby carrots, broccoli and peas as treats as well. Now, at nearly 6 months all of a sudden she wants to eat and she's back to eating Cesars (yes, we know, it's not a healthy food, but having her eat at all is a miracle and we'll try to switch her to more healthy food once we feel she's going to keep on eating). She eats a lot right now and we are thrilled after fighting an uphill battle.

Anyway, that's the long answer to your question. Four times a day at four hour intervals. We do the fourth feeding around between 9:00 and 10:00 in the evening because if we didn't she'd wake up in the morning and throw up white foamy liquid. So she had to have a late feeding to prevent that.
