| How often to feed Joel Just wondering if this sounds right, a friend of mine thinks Joels not eaten as often as he should. So he eats 1/2 a cup in a day, split up between 3 meals. He eats every 6 hours, if I feed him earlier he wont eat Breakfast at 8:00 Lunch at 2:00 Dinner at 8:00 And his treats in between, I think it's fine, he's never had probs with low blood sugar. Even when he was a puppy he would go a long time w/o eating and was just fine, ofcourse I was constantly trying to get him to eat,lol but I think he's past the point of worrying about his blood sugar, he's not finicky or picky. |

| Three times/day for a puppy is great. When he gets a little older, you can reduce it to twice/day. My adult yorkies eat at 7 am and 4 pm.

| Sounds perfect to me Mine eat 2X a day, at 7 am and 5 pm they get their little bit of canned food and they have kibbles down all the time. They usually hit those pretty hard right before bedtime.
