Mia just turned 3 months old and I have been feeding her 3 times a day, 3 teaspoons....But she seems to eat it quickly! Should I be feeding her more? Or is she getting used to only eating 3 times a day??
Any advice would be great!
Thanks!!!

:confused: 3 teaspoons in each feeding? I dont think that is enough, maybe it's me. I fed nemo 1/2 cup twice a day when he was a puppy..

Mia is just so dog gone cute!!!! ....... it should tell you on the bag how much she should be getting for her age. It's been so long since I had a puppy but I usually go by the bag suggestions and if they leave some, then I cut back and if they gobble it up, next time I add a little. I only feed mine twice a day but they are not puppies. Check out the bag and others will respond too!!! I'm certain!:D

I feed LB 3/4 cup dry and 1/4 wet twice a day 6 AM and 7 PM. It seems to work well with her. But do look at the feeding directions on the bag to give you and idea and you may have to adjust it to Mia's needs.

I looked at the bag and it said to feed her 1/2 cup but she will not eat that much! I guess I will increase her amount of food a little more....But she could not eat a half cup! She could barely finish what I was giving her! Not until recently has she increased her appetite...Thanks everyone!

donbi is over a year old now... so i feed her morning and dinner
my other furkids are 5-6-7 month old!
and eversince i got them at 3 months...
i lay out food for them 24-7 morning afternoon daytime always full!
they eat til they are good never too much or too less...
i know it sounds bad but i like my babies plump
and my breeders told me to do that...
also... they are 3.3-4.3-4.8 pounds never go up or down so i guess im doing something right lol
but once they hit around 8-12 months i will fill the bowls up only during the daytime... and slowly go to the routine of morning and afternnon meals for the kiddies too just like donbi
