How much and what should I feed my dog: Pedigree, chicken, rice, milk?

Pedigree puppy food is fine to feed your puppy, but you don't have to mix it with water as he is old enough to eat solid food. That being said, it will do no harm to mix it with the water :-) He should eat three times a day, once in the morning, noon, and evening. Once he is six months old, he can be fed twice a day (morning and evening). I would feed him according to the instructions on the label, and divide it into three equal portions.

Pedigree is fine if it's a food bath Yoggie seems to enjoy. He should be fed twice a day, once on the morning and once in the evening. I would divide the daily recommended amount on the label of his food into two equal portions. He may prefer to eat alone, so I would leave him be to eat his food in peace. Plain dog biscuits are fine, but he does not need milk. Dairy actually causes GI upset in dogs, so it's not recommended to give to him. The only liquid Yoggie needs is water :-)

Hello, and congratulations on your new puppy! The most important thing is to feed Arjun a well-balanced commercial kibble designed for growth. Your Pedigree diet should cover that - just make sure that it is formulated for puppies. Beyond that, everything else is considered a treat (carrot, apples, egg, etc). All these treats should not total more than 10% of his total intake of food in a day, although you may feed more treats during this early stage of potty and obedience training. As for feeding times, I like to feed puppies 3 times a day at this age. Over the next month, you can reduce this frequency to 2 times a day. Each time, leave out a full bowl and let him eat as much as he wants. Then take away the dish after 15 minutes. This ensures that he eats until he is full, but ensures that he doesn't get bored of his food if it is available all the time. You should start giving more exact portions of food after the age of 6 months, as their growth will slow down significantly at this point and they will be more prone to becoming overweight. I hope this helps, and that Arjun is happy and healthy!

You should feed her twice a day, pork/chicken and rice only could cause some vitamins and mineral deficiencies, if you choose to feed her that only then i would recommend giving her a vitamin supplement on top of that.

Hi and thanks for using PetCoach! The best thing to do is to use this great tool- https://www.petcoach.co/healthy-weight-calculator/ Follow the steps and it will tell you how many kcal to feed per day. The energy density of the food should be on the nutrition label on the Pedigree bag. It is usually reported as kcal/cup of food. So once you know how many kcals to feed you can determine how much food to feed per day. Good luck with Olive.

Rice and milk is not nutritionally balanced for a dog, they require a varied meat based diet. I would recommend trying alternative commercial food which have been fully balanced and slowly mix this with the food she currently likes at about 10% extra per week until at least 80-90% of her diet is dog food

Hi there. If this is being fed as one of their main meals for the day, then yes, it is unhealthy - this is not complete or nutritionally balanced, and is not an appropriate long-term diet for any dog. I would recommend feeding a good-quality commercial dog food such as Purina ProPlan, Iams/Eukanuba, or Royal Canin. Any treats or supplemental feeding beyond that should make up no more than 10% of the total diet. If your mother-in-law wants to prepare food for the dogs at home, she needs to use the website www.balanceit.com to formulate an appropriate recipe, or consult with a veterinary nutritionist.
