How many times does a female dog eat a day?

Answer 1

Not more then a male Dog...like 2-3 times a day

Answer 2

How many times does a female human eat a day?
All dogs should be fed twice a day with puppies, some toy breeds, and older dogs eating three times a day.

Answer 3

The sex of the dog does not matter unless she is pregnant.
The AGE and SIZE of the dog is the most important thing other than if she is pregnant or lactating.
Puppies up to 6-8 months are usually fed 3 times or more per day.
Adult dogs, regular size, twice a day. You want to divide feedings to help decrease the amount of food volume at one meal. There is better absorption (and ergo, less stool) and less chance of bloat (stomach twisting).
Breeds with deep chests (bassets, german sheps, border collies, golden retrievers, labs, etc.) should also be fed twice a day to help prevent bloat. Always wait an hour or two before or after feeding to exercize these dogs.
Giant breeds, ALWAYS divide up the feedings, use giant breed puppy food specifically, especially watch for bloat with them. They continue to grow for years, so puppy food must be continued for years.
High energy smaller breed puppies- (terriers, basenji's, small herders, etc.) three times a day for 6-8 months. High energy puppy food specifically as well.
I know this was a lot of information, but you did not give a lot of details so we could be more specific with our answers.
Pregnant and lactating females need puppy chow. You need to check with your vet what would be best for your dog.

Answer 4

Generally the amount of food a dog consumes is determined by their weight and not gender. I have three dogs that weigh average 75 pounds each and I feed them a scoop and a half of food each, twice a day. I could make it once a day but since I work from home I have the ability to break up their meals. You don't want to over fed because that will most certainly lead to health problems.

Answer 5

Depends on the dog itself. Your breeder should have told you how often to feed your dog, regardless if it's a male or a female. Some dogs don't eat their food right away and that's OK. I have a beagle and he eats it right away but we're required to feed him two times a day. It just depends on the type of dog you have! Hope this helps!

Answer 6

Depends on the size of dog. I split my dogs food into two and then feed her 1/2 in the morning and the last 1/2 in the late afternoon. I feed her about 1 cups, only because she is a high energy dog.

Answer 7

Most dogs should eat 2-3 meals a day.

Answer 8

You should check with your local veterinarian. Males and Females meal times and amount of food usually depends on the the age of the dog, and it's overall body (posssibly looking into the genetics of that breed). When they are a puppy they usually eat more frequent, and smaller amounts of food. As they get older their amounts usually increase, and the frequency is a lot less.

Answer 9

That all depends on it's size,health at the time and general appetite. If you are a new dog owner try One cup of food in the morning and another at supper time. You will get the drift of it all soon after watching her eat.

Answer 10

I would feed a female dog no more than twice a day. Once in the morning and then once late afternoon. However, if she is carrying pups, it has been my experiance to give them a little more and a little more frequent.
