Many dog owners have been paying attention to a problem, how many meals a day is best for dogs, because there are different opinions, saying that dogs can't eat too much, eating too much is not good for digestion, digestion , but couldn't bear to watch the baby hungry. So, how many meals a day is reasonable for a dog?

Newborn puppies, we don't have to worry about them eating Problem, because the dog mother will take good care of them. After a month and a half to two months, the mother dog's milk can no longer satisfy the appetite of the puppies. You will see the puppies always revolving around the mother, and the mother dog always looks at them helplessly. And at this time, the puppy has grown a lot of small fangs, and feeding the puppy has become a more painful thing for the dog mother. At this time, it is time to give the puppy some food. Use the boiled milk powder to soak the dog food and feed it to the puppy, pay attention to the milk powder, because the bag milk or fresh milk we drink is too high in fat, and the puppy will have diarrhea after drinking it. If the mother dog is still feeding the puppy, eat two to three times a day, increasing to four times a day as the mother dog feeds less and less. That is every six hours. It is easy to identify whether the puppy is hungry. They bark when they're hungry and hunt around for something to eat, so you don't need an alarm clock to get up at 5am to feed them. That's the price to pay for a puppy.

Puppies from three months to five or six months can basically be fed three times a day, that is, three times in the morning, noon and evening. Note that the time interval should be as even as possible, so that they develop the habit of eating regularly. Puppies usually stink after a meal, so when you're ready to feed them and watch them gobble, you'll need to be ready to poop. It is a good idea to judge whether a puppy who is not hungry enough to eat is eating too much, you just need to look at their poop. Normal poop is a little soft but formed (don't be disgusting, observing dog poop is an important part of the dog's work), it should not be sticky and should not have the original shape of the food, if it is small The dog's feces are very soft and shapeless, and there is even undigested food in it. It is obviously fed too much, and the test should reduce the food given to them. At this time, hold on and don't be fooled by their pitiful little eyes.

After the puppy is six months old, if your puppy is growing well, you can gradually change its meal to two meals a day, one in the morning and one in the evening. With regular meals and regular walks, the dog will develop the habit of not excreting at home, and being a parent will save a lot of trouble.

As for adult dogs, there are different opinions on how many meals a day should be eaten. One is one meal a day, the other is two meals a day. The editor personally thinks that two meals a day are healthier, and my dog has always adopted this method. Because I think it's cruel to only feed a dog one meal 24 hours a day, and the dog is hungry for too long during the day, during which time it will often ask you for food, like meat It will also eat a lot of dry, biscuits and even what people eat, which is actually more detrimental to the health of dogs. A full meal with countless snacks is definitely not as healthy as two meals with a few snacks. In addition, if it is guaranteed that the dog eats only one meal a day without any other snacks, the blood sugar of the dog will vary greatly throughout the day. When it is hungry, the blood sugar will be very low, and after the meal, the blood sugar will rise again. Too much increase is also extremely detrimental to the dog's health.
