QuestionHow many times a day should I feed my 10 week old Pitbull? I got her @ 8&1/2 weeks old and I currently feed her twice a day based on the directions ont he puppy food she is taking. I am not sure if she is not getting enough when she eats or if I need to feed her more a day. Please assist. Thank you in advance!
AnswerHello Carter-
A pup this small can eat 3 times per day until about 14 weeks old. Then, around 15 weeks old go to two meals per day.
Make sure you are feeding a good food that is for pups. Good ones are: Innova, Wellness, Solid Gold, Eagle pack, Chicken Soup for the Puppies Soul..... ( anything that is low if grains .... Mostly meat). Go to a pet store to buy a quality food.
Next, If you want to add a few more calories.... buy a few cans of WET food - Solid Gold or Wellness has some nice canned food. Give two or three tablespoons full in the morning meal/ on top of the dry.
NuVET Plus has a great vitamin for your baby: here is the site... you can not buy this in the pet store. They only sell to groomers and VET offices... NuVET Plus is a wafer treat.
