How much should I be feeding my frenchie daily???

[Dirtypaws]

I was wondering how much I should be feeding my 6 month old lil piggy. We currently feed him natural balance Lamb and brown rice 1 cup 2x a day (total of 2 cups daily) is this too little or too much?? We were feeding him 1/2 cup 2x a day up until 6 months and then we decided to increase since we were able to see his bone structure and he looked too thin to me. I read something online that said 6 months and older to feed 2 cups daily. Thoughts??

I would do 2 cups a day till age of 1 and then down to 1/2 cup 2x a day for rest of life unless there is a need to adjust

I agree with Christine [MENTION=2]2bullymama[/MENTION], feed that pup plenty while they are growing. When they get close to a year old and start putting on weight, then decrease the food. We feed our adult females 1/2 cup 2 X's a day. Henri gets 3/4 cup 2 X's a day. You can tll if you are feeding a pup too much as their poop will get like soft serve. If it is still hard, increase the food.

2 cups a day is a pretty good option.
