How many times do golden retrievers eat?

Most dog food bags suggest feeding too much. I send our 10 week old puppies home eating about 1/2 cup of food 3 times a day. By 3 months, they will need a total of 2 cups a day and by 4 months, they should be eating about 2 1/2 cups a day. Increase to about 3 cups a day by 5 months for boys and by 6 months for girls.

Should Golden Retrievers eat once or twice a day?

Dogs should eat at least two meals each day, about 12 hours apart. But a breakfast, lunch, and dinner schedule is an equally great option. If more than 12 hours elapses between meals, the stomach can become hyperacidic causing nausea.
