Colby, thanks for all of your advise! As my puppy grows, I’ve noticed he gets hungry before his supper. I’ve started giving him a little food early afternoon and he loves it! Thanks again!

You should check with your vet, but in general we feed our puppies puppy food until they are around 1 year old. If it were me I’d either return the adult food or check the expiration date and as long as it’s still good feed it to my puppy when she gets older.

Yep, it’s always good to see a waistline especially with Labs who always act like they’re starving. In our experience the Lab pups we’ve brought home have needed more rather than less kibble compared to the guidelines in our puppy manual. I’m guessing it’s their high energy level and the amount of activity we do with our pups on a daily basis.

When our puppies are about 4-5 months old we go from feeding them 3 times a day to 2 times a day. However, this is based on rules set by the guide and service dog schools we work with. You might consult your vet to see what he/she recommends for your puppy.

Thank you for adopting! I’d recommend consulting with your veterinarian about your dogs food and feeding schedule. Just to give you an idea of one of the dogs we recently brought home…we are fostering a 1 1/2 year old Golden Retriever who’s about 70 pounds. We feed her 1 1/2 cups of Wellness Core Grain Free and she poops twice a day. Hopefully that helps. Good luck with your new dog.
