What is a good time for dogs to eat dinner?
Ideally, your dog should exercise about an hour before each meal. For example, if your first walk of the day is at 7a. m., the first meal of the day should come at 8 a.m. Similarly, an evening walk - finishing at 6pm - would be followed by dinner at 7pm.
Is it okay for my dog to skip dinner?
If your dog goes more than 48–72 hours without eating anything at all, you should at least call your vet to inform them of the situation.
