Pet dogs do not need to be fed as much as humans, as they are sedentary most of the time; even their wolf ancestors didn't need to eat all the time (of course, work dogs are a different story). Dogs that are "members of the family" consider themselves to be "members of the pack", so to speak, so they prefer to eat with the other pack members (this has the added benefit of reducing begging for table scraps!). Unless your pet dog is under a veterinarian's care and/or otherwise has special needs, the best time of day to feed a dog is at dinner, when the rest of the "pack" typically eats together. Some dogs, instinctively, won't eat unless another "pack" member is present.
