How much kibble and how often for my 1-month-old German Shepherd?

Congratulations on your new puppy! You should feed him 3-4 times a day until he is 4-6 months old. Then he can be fed twice a day. The amount of food to feed him depends on the diet you feed him. Every dog food bag will have instructions on the back and this is a loose guide. You and your veterinarian can adjust the food as needed. Bubba MUST eat a large breed puppy food. The diet I recommend is the Royal Canin German Shepherd Puppy. This diet will allow an even growth and it is highly digestible. German Shepherds can be very sensitive dogs when it comes to food. I hope this helps and please feel free to post any additional questions.

Jordan is so cute! At 40 days of age, he can be started on a puppy formulated food. He needs a puppy food because puppies need higher amounts of protein, calcium, and calories than an adult dog to grow properly. A puppy food will provide this for him. Brands I recommend include Royal Canin, Hill's Science Diet, Purina ProPlan, and Iams. He should be fed three times a day, once in the morning, afternoon, and evening. On his bag of puppy food, there will be a daily recommended allotment of food, and I would divide that into three equal portions. Once he is six months of age, he can be fed twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening. Good luck, I hope this helps!

Great question! If your GSD is less than six months old, she should be getting fed three times a day. Once in the morning, once at lunch, and once in the evening. I would feed her according to the package instructions, and divide the daily allotment into three equal servings. Once she is six months old, she can be fed twice a day (once in the morning and once in the evening).

Any food that is made for puppies is good. This provides all the nutrition a puppy needs and there will be no need for giving supplements. A one month old puppy should still be nursing, so if the mother is not around, then you will need to supplement milk. Below is a link to some good information about feeding and caring for puppies without their mother. https://vcahospitals.com/know-your-pet/feeding-orphaned-puppies https://vcahospitals.com/know-your-pet/puppy-raising I hope that helps and all is well with the pup.

At a month of age, Malia is just starting to eat solid foods and shouldn't be away from her mother yet (unless orphaned). I would find a wet food or puppy starter food that can be mixed in with kibble, or mix in Malia's puppy formula with it to make a slurry that is easy to eat. Any large breed puppy diet should be fine to give as long as it is complete and balanced. Grain-free isn't really necessary unless there is an allergy to the food, but allergies are not common in a one month old puppy.

Feed him 4-5 times daily at his age. Puppies need to eat small meals frequently to keep glucose levels stable. As he ages, you can definitely rease the number of feedings until he is eating twice daily at about 1 year old. The brands of food you mentioned are all premium diets and excellent choices for a growing puppy. If the have "large breed" puppy formulas, those would be best to ensure Odin doesn't grow too fast. You can make a slurry or gruel by mixing the Esbilac with the kibble. Decrease the amount of liquid over the next few weeks until he is eating dry food by 8-10 weeks of age. He can begin vaccines at 8 weeks of age though you may want to have him dewormed now and then repeat it in the next several weeks.

You should feed him puppy replacer milk until the age of 6-8 months, you can start some wet puppy food as well in about a week from now. he needs to eat 4-6 times a day at the moment. you don't need to give him any supplements as non of those have been proven to prevent hip dysplasia.
