| Normal Amount to Feed Pup? My puppy is about 15 weeks old and is 2.7 pounds. I've been giving him 1/2 cup of dry food mixed with about 3 teaspoon of wet food a day (broken into 3 times). He never finish his food. At most, he eats about half of what I give him. His tummy is always full after a meal but I still feel as if he is not eating enough? I'm feeding him Natural Balance because of his allergies. The bag says he should be eating 1/2 cup of the food per day but he's not. Is this normal? Should I be worry? Maybe he doesn't really like the food? Should I try another brand? I was thinking about California Natural... Any comments would be appreciated, thanks. |

Furbutts = LOVE Donating Member Moderator | A 15 week old pup isn't really able to have allergies yet...so I'm not sure why he'd be on an allergy food. Natural Bal may not have the necessary guar. analysis for a puppy - which one are you feeding? Allergy foods are often low in fat and protein. As far as amounts, what does the bag say?
