What time do you feed your dog?

Males mark on things

Males kill the bushes and flowers, females kill the grass. I feel for people that have a male and a female.

I feed my boy 2-3 times a day. I work grave yard so he usually gets his breakfast at about 5:30-6a and then when I wake up at about 3p and sometimes at around 9p if I take him for a long walk. Also I feed him Canidae (just recenlty switched from nutro ultra) and it contains alot more calories per serving then the normal brands therefore you feed them less food and they have less and smaller stools. Also the store where I get the Canidae from highly reccomends it for pit bulls, they said that it is the only food they sell their pit bull owners.

Thanks again everyone...

I didn't mean to get this into a urine stain thread, oops. My only reasoning was that maybe, just maybe, smaller more frequent feedings might lead to less stains than larger single feedings (protien buildup thing).

I'm going with three smaller feedings a day and just keep an eye on her stool and the stains. I have so many stains right now it will be hard to tell which ones are new. And i'll be adding water to her food like some suggest (also helps with the medication she is taking right now).

i was told to feed dogs twice a day. i guess once a day is more harsh on their system. Who knows...

Higher quality food = the dog needs less food = less poop to clean up.

I feed Ruby in the morning when she gets up (anywhere from 5 -7 am) and in the evening when I get home. I've had so many problems with her health and her eating habits that I'm just happy she wants to eat now!! 5 am wakeup calls are not fun, but I've gotten used to it.
