at what age should i reduce my puppys meals to two a day?

Answer 1

Generally around 6 months. Discuss it with your vet, it will depend on your particular puppies growth rate and if he's growing according to standards for the breed.

Answer 2

That depends ont the activity level of your dog. Your can change from 3 to 2 feedings after 16 weeks. Thats if you have an underative puppy. Highly active puppies may need to go longer. Various vets have verious views on this. Most breeders start at 16 weeks and go from there. Read your feed directions and stay with the specified daily amount. You just redivide. If you do cut back to 2 feedings dont be temped to give extra snacks.

Answer 3

1 year

Answer 4

I reduced my puppies food to twice ady when they were 6 months and when they're a year old you can change it to once a day or continue on twice

Answer 5

It doesn't matter how many times a day you feed your dog, the important thing is to feed the correct daily amount.

Dog's naturally eat one meal day in the wild. This is acceptable for pet dogs too, though I think most people feed two meals a say.

Looka the feeding guidelines on the food packet and feed the appropriate daily amount, divided into as many or as few meals per day as you like!

Answer 6

I generally wait til they are done their vaccinations at 16 weeks.. For no reason other than it's a marker point. Teething has started, they are eating less likely anyhow, vaccinations are done you are able to get them out more and more exercise socialization, etc. So they are doing more, and can easily switch to morning and evening meals. Never had a problem doing it that way.

Answer 7

at about 4 months

Answer 8

Under vet's direction, with the last dog, I went over at 8 months.
