I'm with Doc E - My vet recommended 2 feedings a day. Now instead of 3 cups in the morning, I break it down to 2 cups AM, 1 cup PM.
Good for you Also remember that it takes a dog 12 to 16 hours to fully digest a meal. So you want the larger meal to be 12 hours before the dog will beexpendingthe most calories (Large meal the night before if you are going to put in a big hunt the next day--------Or the big meal in the morning if your dog is going to be kennelled outdoors in the Winter).
