Question

i just want some input from people on how much food (cups) per feeding per day?

Answer 1

You should feed him 2ce a day, and check the back of your dog food bag.. It will tell you how much to feed your dog.. Take the daily required amount for your dog's size / weight, and divide in 2, and feed morning and night.

Answer 2

Start with a high quality food, Canidae, Innova, Natural Balance to name a couple. Steer clear from Science Diet, Eukanuba, Purina, Iams, and other store brands.

Then look at the back of the bag for your pup's recommended daily amount. Divide this into at least 2 meals. This is just a starting point, some dogs need less, some dogs need more.

Watch your dog's weight. If he is getting a little thin, feed a little more, a little chubby, feed a little less.

If your dog is a good weight you should be able to easily feel his ribs under a thin layer of fat, he should also have a visible "waist" when viewed from above.

If you have a hard time feeling his ribs, and he doesn't have a visible "waist" he's overweight.

Answer 3

depends on his weight.
their should be a chart on the bag of dog food that will let you know how much to feed him.
if not you could look online for one!

Answer 4

your puppy should be fed 3 small meals a day or two med meals daily.

Answer 5

as its a mix bread pup you should take care of his eating habits as they eat more than a pure bread & are really agrassive too so as soon as possible consult your vet about his eating habits
