Can puppies tell when they are full?

【Expert answer】
Any Q

It's long been said that dogs, like some humans, don't know when it's time to stop eating when they're full. They'll continue to eat the food in front of them until it's gone, be it a cup of food or 20 pounds of kibble. In fact, they just might keep on eating until they drop dead. 16 сент. 2016 г.


How do I know when a puppy is full?

Place your hand on each puppy's abdomen. It should feel firm and round and the skin should be stretched. This means their tummy is full.

How do I know if I am feeding my puppy enough?

How Much? Puppies need to eat a lot–and not too much. You should be able to feel but not see their ribs, and they should have a visible waist when you look down at them. This is true for puppies of any breed, big or small.
