What time of day should you feed your dogs?

【Expert answer】
Any Q

You can feed your dog one or two times a day. It's best to do it twice daily at 8-12 hour intervals.


Does it matter what time of day you feed your dog?

"While there is no best time, with most dogs that eat twice a day, it is best to feed them in the morning as soon as you get up and then again when you get home from work in the afternoon.," says Dr. Sara Ochoa, veterinary consultant for doglab.com who practices in Texas.

What time is too late to feed a dog?

You should not feed puppies too late in the evening, and we would recommend sticking to the three hour rule. You should feed puppies 3-4 hours before bedtime, so that they can burn off their food, and it gives them time to poop or pee.

What time should I stop feeding my dog at night?

The Solution. To prevent your dog being energy-filled in the middle of the night, feed your pet companion at least three hours before bedtime. Regardless of whether you have a puppy who eats three to four times a day or an adult dog who eats two meals a day, make the last meal of the day early in the evening.
