To feed your new pet
puppy kibble on a consistent basis, try an automatic dog feeder
Puppies need to
eat more times per day than adult dogs. Most pet food companies
recommend feeding puppy kibble 3-4 times a day until they are six months
old. That's a lot of work for the humans! An automatic dog feeder
works great for puppy kibble. It will make sure the bowl is always full
and available. You can even get an automatic dog feeder that feeds
specific amounts of food several times a day.
Because puppies are still growing, they
use a ton of energy. They require a lot of puppy kibble to give them
enough pep while their bodies are working so hard to grow. With adult
dogs, you have to worry about free feeding leading to obesity. An
automatic dog feeder that leaves food down all the time for little ones
is much less likely to cause weight problems.
Be sure you
feed puppy kibble as long as your vet recommends for that particular
breed or mix. Adult food won't give him all of the nutrients and fat he
needs to grow up to be big and strong. Smaller puppies can get sick if
they miss even one meal, so an automatic dog feeder will help make sure
he gets all of the sustenance he needs. It will also make pet feeding
times a lot easier on you!
