How Much Food?

July 4, 2014, 3:48 PM


We have a 4 1/2 month old Cavachon.  How much food should she be given a day?  I am feeding her approximately 1/3 cup, 3 times a day.  I am gradually switching her dry food.

Answer:


Just like us your puppy will not eat the same amount every day or every meal.  Rule of thumb on a puppy is let them eat what they want in about 5 minutes 3 times daily.  Probably the verge would be 1-11/2 cups per 5 pounds body weight per day. Review the other forum questions on "food"
