Just need to run my pup's food quantities past you guys
I've gotten my english setter pup onto Solid Gold Hundchen-Flocken (puppy). He absolutely loves it, although he wasn't keen on the Wolf Cub/Wolf King.
He's:
- 6 months old, 42lbs as of May 5 which is pretty big for his age but still very lean. (ribs present under a thin layer of fat, probably just below a 3 on the body scale)
- on 1 - 1 1/4c of the food 3x/day (max 3 3/4 c total) plus OMH treats daily.
- exercise: either plays at the dog park 1+ hours 2x/day (morning/evening) or 1 hour + in the morning and 1.5 km walk in the evening.
- pretty well muscled and going through growth spurts
And he's ALWAYS hungry! Just wanted to check that doesn't look like I'm underfeeding him, The qtys seem correct as per the bag, but is he EVER food oriented. (ie into the garbage, into the cat food if he can etc...)
