6 to 12 weeks
growing puppies should be fed wet food, a diet formulated to meet the nutritional needs for normal development. Feeding adult food will rob your puppy of important nutrients. Four feedings a day are usually adequate to meet nutitional demands. Large breeds should be on unmoistened dry food by 9 or 10 weeks; small dogs by 12 or 13 weeks.
3 to 6 months
Sometime during this period, decrease feeding from 4 to 3 a day.
6 to 12 months
Begin feeding 2 times a day. After the age 1, dogs can be fed one hearty portion daily, but many owners feed adult dogs two half portions a day.
