Hey guys! In this video I will give you great visuals of how much your puppy needs to eat everyday. Puppies need to eat three times a day. No if's and's or but's.. THREE times a day, until they are about 4 months old. Puppies that are "Toy Breeds" may eat 4-6 small meals a day to meet their nutritional needs. Examples of Toy Breeds are chihuahuas, yorkies, Pomeranians, shitzus and miniature schnauzers and more. Large breed puppies (labradors, dobermans, boxers, Australian shepherd ect) are just fine eating 3 big meals a day. In this video I show you a chart that will tell you exactly how many cups to feed your puppy depending on their weight. If you follow that chart you won't go wrong with feeding your puppy the right amount of food. If you are ever in doubt just always feed your puppy more food than less. In this video you will meet Luke who is a 4 month old Aussie Doodle, he is 20lbs and eats about 3-4 cups of food, three times a day.
PLEASE share this video with any friends who are getting a new puppy and need to know how much to feed them! I hope this video helped you!
Give this Video a THUMBS UP! To help my Veterinary Channel grow!
Thank you, Dr. Lindsay Butzer

For those who don’t understand her it is 1 cup of food split up into 3 times a day she has three bowls separating those meals which means they are not getting 1 cup 3 times that is way to much food. She is measuring by pounds and the second is 2 cups for all day split up and so on

@loveyashua237 2 года назад

Love your channel and the useful info u have to share. I have two whippets 9 weeks old and we were told by the breeder to feed him 1 cup of food TID and the last meal we offer is at 7:30 but breakfast is not until 7-8:30 am , isn’t this too log from the last meal till breakfast? We are a bit unsure what to do because we wake them up to use the bathroom but sometimes it takes a little while to get them settled back to sleep as they can be whiney and just thinking they could be hungry.

This is poor information. Stay away from the Hills brand full of crap…pretty much all kibble are snd never mix wet food with kibble it messes with their PH level! Go raw you can’t go wrong!

@stephaniehenderson6631 2 года назад

I put a small amount of wet food in the microwave for a few seconds then add a spoonful of water (test the temperature with a clean finger). It then can be mashed up really easily and make a tasty, fragrant sauce for the kibble for a picky dog. I do this as more wet food would make my dog have loose stools but dry kibble is too boring and results in weight loss.

@lburg3780 2 месяца назад

Same here for my standard poodle. Dry kibble isn’t worth his time. Trying to find the right mixture of wet to dry so he has firmer stools.

@VaniaAjah 3 года назад

Actually it will better if you have a complete measurement cups. I have from 1/4 until 1 cup and even have mililiters cups for my kitchen equipments and now i used it for feed my 7 weeks old Beagle puppy. I prefer give her 1/4 cup of kibble with a half of boiled fresh chicken liver every meal, 3 times a day. I also put her kibble on toys just for snack, but i make sure its not much than 1/4 cup for whole day. So in total she will eat less than 1 cup with 1 and a half fresh chicken liver everyday.

@shannayan8673 2 года назад

Hi everyone, I've read on many pet guides as well as heard from many veterinarians that the amount of wet food should replace a portion of the recommended daily feeding amount on the dry puppy food bag rather than in addition to the dry food amounts. In this video, she gives the wet food on top of the dry food amounts. Isn't this wrong?

@Academiacaramelcurlz 7 месяцев назад

So I have a toy poodle and I’ve been feeding my puppy close to a cup of food a day. I go over that most days for sure and she’s now about 7 pounds at 6 months. I’m sure I over feed her a bit and I like to feed her once a day or put about a cup in her bowl and let her eat it throughout the day. I don’t think my puppy is in need of the syrup because she does eat pretty well and isn’t thin. But I’m not sure if I can get away with just feeding her the full amount once and then add the syrup if I’m going to be away and can’t feed her twice.
