Puppies need consistent meals to grow and thrive, but life is busy, and that’s okay.
Here’s a straightforward approach:
- 2–3 Meals a Day: Start by feeding your puppy two to three meals daily. This gives flexibility for your schedule while keeping your puppy satisfied.
- Monitor Their Appetite: Puppies’ appetites can change as they grow. If your puppy seems hungrier (e.g., chewing more or scavenging), consider increasing their portion size.
- Transition to Twice a Day: By around six months, most puppies can settle into two meals a day, which is sustainable for working families.
Pro Tip: Mealtime is a perfect opportunity to reinforce basic commands like “sit” and “stay.”
