Golden Rules of Puppy Feeding
Do not give your pet any scraps from the table, crusts of bread or human food
If possible remove your pet from any food preparation area whilst you are cooking/eating meals

Measure the food accurately on a scales
Don’t guess or use “just a handful”, and be careful using measuring cups as these aren’t always accurate
Don’t leave food available at all times – Restrict meal times to 10-15 minutes around the same time every day
Do not give your pet any Wet food, Dentastix, Gravy Bones or similar products
Make Feeding time fun (Kong Wobbler or Slow Feed Bowl) – this will cause your pet to work for the food, make them feel fuller and increase the enjoyment of mealtimes
Do not add any supplements or fillers to your puppies food unless advised by the vet
Restrict treats to Training time only – don’t let it become a daily habit

And most importantly – Involve the whole family!
