Knowing what to feed your puppy and when to feed can seem like a bit of a minefield.
Below is a guideline of how many times a day to feed: - 2-3months: four meals a day
- 4-6months: two to three meals a day
- Over 6 months: two meals a day
Keep to a routine and to the same food and don't be tempted in to leaving your puppies food down all day, as this can cause problems as they get older i.e. fussy eating.
Try not to feed your puppy immediately before or after exercising. Allow an hour to pass between feeding and activity. This helps to prevent the risk of swelling or twisting of the stomach, which is potentially life threatening.
