Puppy feeding guide
Since puppies are actively growing and developing, they require more calories than adult dogs of the same weight.
Since puppies are actively growing and developing, they require more calories than adult dogs of the same weight. In general, puppies need to eat what a dog who is two to four times their weight eats.
Feed puppies three times a day, up until they are 6 months old. After 6 months, two meals a day is recommended. For adult dogs, one or two meals a day is fine.
