Any Q

As Chihuahuas are such a small breed, they don't have the energy reserves of their bigger brethren. Therefore, they can be at risk of low blood sugar if they don't eat often enough. Because of this, we recommend you feed an adult Chihuahua three times a day; breakfast, lunch, and dinner!


Can I feed my Chihuahua once a day?

Most veterinarians (including myself) recommend feeding adult dogs twice a day. Some people feed their dogs once a day, but dogs that are only fed once a day can get hungry and also sometimes can be prone to bilious vomiting (vomiting caused by an empty stomach).

How many times a day a Chihuahua eats?

An old dog should typically be fed three times daily, and a young dog may have to be fed three times daily between the ages of 3 and 6 months. Two times a day is what's right for feeding a large portion of high-quality dried food to an adult Chihuahua.
