Question
how do i feed my 5 month old Labrador puppy?  how much should i give her and how many times should i feed her and what type food should i give her?

Answer
Hello Kel and thank you for your questios,

Simply offer the food in a dish to her twice a day or you can leave it on the floor all the time. I would reccomend reading the bag's lable and see how much theysay to feed a dog of her weight and age, about 3 1/2 to 4 cups would be about right. I reccomend feeding dry foods they are cheaper, better forthe dogs teeth and pervent the dog having direea all the time from feeding a soft diet. For high end foods there are: Neutreance, Athority, Nutro, Sinece diet, Pro plan Technical & Bil Jac, cheaper foods are Purian one, Purian, Peddigree and Beniful. Iams and Eukanuba are both the same(both made by iams company!) and shouldnt be fed in my otpion.... check out www.iams cruelty.com to find out why I don't reccomend it(LIVE animal testing falcilities!!!!!DOGS  & CATS!). If you need help with antynig esle I'd be hapopy to help you the best I an, Enjoy your new puppy.
