How much food do you feed a puppy a day?

Answer 1

It depends on how big the puppy is, look on the back of the bag of puppy food and check it with your puppy`s weight, it should give you the amount to start with,thenjust go from there.

Here is a recipe from a bloodhound kennel: AGE: 11 weeks 8am: 1 cup puppy chow soaked in 1 cup skim milk. Add 1/3lb hamburger, 1 tsp cod liver il, 1 tsp calcium-phosphorus powder, mix well and feed. Noon: 2 boiled eggs, 1 cup cottage cheese. Never feed raw eggs, cannot digest raw eggwhites properly. 6 pm: same as morning, omitting cod liver oil and calcium. add 1 tsp corn oil or other veg oil and one vitamin c tablet, 500mg. daily until over 1 yr old 9 pm 1 cup puppy chow, dry. After food is eaten, 1 cup skim milk. Note: Vitamin and mineral supplement should be added according to vet directions. At 3 months late feeding may be omitted, at 6 months lunch may be omitted. Add the eggs and cottage cheese to other meals in place of part of the meat. Increase the amount as the puppy grows. Give him what he will eat promptly but never allow a pan of food to stand before a healthy dog more than 30 minutes. Typical diet for a bloodhound 1yr and up is about 5 - 6 cups of good high quality dog meal, plus a pound of meat, boiled egg, 1/2 cup cottage cheese and a tblsp of corn or other oil or cooking fat. Divide into 2 meals and use water or milk to moisten the food. not too sloppy. Two or three times a week add a tsp of honey, twice a week use Tomato Juice instead of water/milk, 3 times a week use a small carton of yogurt. Let the food sit for 15 - 20 mins to allow the food to swell. this reduces the chance of gastric torsion. Always have fresh clean water available. This information was found in, "The Complete Bloodhound", and is paraphrased but accurate to the quantities. Please talk to your vet before trying this recipe on your bloodhound. And monitor closely to make sure he/she is not allergic to anything in this recipe.
