| Food amount? Do you feed them less after they turn one so they don't get fat? Joel has been eating half a cup a day sometimes a little less but lately he feels like a Shar Pei when I pet him,lol I can't remember what he weighed when he was just at the vets, but until I take him again to get weighed I used the scale here and it said he was 9 pounds not sure if it's totaly accurate, but I wouldn't be surprised. So i'm thinking to feed him 1/3 cup instead along with treats and veggies in the middle. |

| I definitely have had to feed much less! And it happened sooner than 1 year for us! Once Toki's frame reached adult size, she just started to kind of chunk up. She used to get 3/4 c. of food (plus treats and bully sticks) but now she gets slightly less than 1/2 c. each day with very tiny treats...she doesn't have as much extra "padding" now |

| Not sure how much grams it is, but I guess I should start feeding him less because he's pretty much done growing, don't want him getting fat. Hehe |
