Question
I have a 14 week old Sibe named Luca who is keeping me on my toes!  I am not sure of how much food he now requires.  I am feeding him Wainwrights Turkey & Rice complete food, about 1/2 pound every 4 hours.  They have Wainwrights meat in trays, do you think I should be giving him this also?  At the end of the day I am not sure if I am feeding him too much or too little, please can you advise me, thanking you, Joy.

Answer
Feed what is advised on the bag. If the dog starts getting to skinny you are feeding to little. If the puppy starts gaining weight you are feeding to much. Dry food is enough if you feel you would like to feed him meat go ahead. It won't hurt if you do. I am unfamiliar with this food (I live in the US) so I cannot tell you what the proper feeding would be. I tend to feed a bit much then cut back if I see the dog gaining to much weight.
