So, when Hugo came he was fed 4 times a day. But the amount of food which was to be fed in a day remained same. For example if 250 gm of food was to be fed every day, then it was divides into 4 equal parts including treats throughout the day.

Also, you have to feed 5% of your dog's current weight throughout the day, including treats. Suggested by our vet.

Continue with 3 meals. Once Jake feels comfortable, then you can firstly increase the quantity so he stays fuller for long, and then reduce to large meals. βœ… Quick check - Just make sure that gap between two meals isn't over 12 hours, it's not desired for furbabies. Do supply summers coolants like watermelon, apples, cucumbers, coconut water (in moderation) to keep Jake hydrated and supple. :)

The frequency of feeding puppies goes down to 3 times per day at around 3 to 6 months of age, and 2 times per day at around 6 to 12 months. After about a year, most puppies can transition to a nutritionally balanced adult dog food diet 2 times per day.
