need a better food schedule and brands my little boy had his check up at his vet today. his vet said that he was skinny :( but we've been feeding him a lot. can anyone please tell me how do you feed you little angels? like what time and what do you feed them in certain times? please and thank you :) |
I feed Sasha 2 times a day, 1/8 cup each time so 1/4 cup total for the day. When she was younger, she used to get fed 3 times a day, but as she got older, she began to not really eat her afternoon meal so I cut it out. |
Some dogs are just naturally skinny, you don't want to get them to be fat or overweight. A lean dog is better than a fat dog. But since he is so young still, I definitely wouldn't worry about over-feeding. Do you free feed? I always free fed Jackson and still sort of do at 2yrs old. I always put 1/2 cup of Orijen or Acana kibble into his bowl every day so he has food available if necessary but he pretty much never eats all day long so I put whatever was remaining in the bowl mixed with wet food for his dinner. Oh, and he gets raw food 3x a week for breakfast so on those days he is fed twice a day. He's 15lbs, btw. But like I said, for a puppy, I would just free feed or feed 3x a day. |
I free feed Lulu. She does very well with this & doesn't overeat at all. She's 7 months old, 3 lbs 6 oz & healthy. I do monitor how much she eats daily to be sure she isn't over eating. |
I feed my girls Taste of the Wild 1/3 cup twice a day. They are both 10-11 lbs. As mentioned above, I would free feed or 3x a day. :) |
I must not be feeding my 2 1/2 lb 5 month old puppy enough. I only feed twice a day and each feeding is 1/8 cup and a few treats during the day. The vet said he was healthy so I'm not worried. I'm feeding him Nature's Recipe but am slowly switching him to Orijen. |
I feed Levi 1/8 cup of Orijen Adult 2-3 times a day - usually at 6:30AM, 2PM (we will sometimes skip the afternoon meal), and 7:30PM. We free-fed until moving in with my brother and his dog, and he has lost a little weight since that switch, but the vet says he is still at a healthy weight. I'll occasionally mix a bit of wet into his dry kibble (we use Wellness Core). |
We use Wellness and Rosie loves it. I leave dry out for her but give her can dog food twice a day. She is only 5 pounds so she don't eat much! |
We feed Now! Harley gets approximately 1/4 cup a day in his dish, plus 1/8 a can of trip twice a day. the kibble is free fed, I also for treats take his kibble and soak some for 15-30 seconds in chicken broth to soften it, break it into littler pieces and he loves those for treats. |
