Recommended number of feedings is as follows:
Feed puppies less than 3 months of age 3-4 daily feedings of moistened food. After 3 months of age gradually reduce moistening and feed 3 times per day.
From 6-12 months provide 2 daily feedings. Allow puppy to eat for 10-15 minutes at each of the above meals.
Remove food after your puppy has finished eating to help avoid overfeeding. Reduce the amount of food offered if the puppy becomes overweight.
Fresh, clean drinking water should always be available.
BETA Puppy recipes are also suitable during gestation and lactation.
Feeding during reproduction:
During the later part of pregnancy and while nursing, females have very high nutritional requirements. Food allowances should be increased 1.5 to 2 fold maintenance levels during the last 3 to 4 weeks of pregnancy and increased again while nursing. Food may be fed moistened to encourage food intake, but fresh water should always be available. After weaning the mother’s food should be adjusted to a daily amount to maintain her at an ideal body condition. Be sure to periodically adjust, if necessary, the daily amount fed to maintain an ideal body condition.
