Recommended number of feedings is as follows: Feed puppies under 3 months of age 3-4 daily feedings of moistened food. After 3 months of age gradually reduce moistening and feed 3 times per day. From 6-12 months provide 2 daily feedings. Feed them according to the recommendation table and avoid overfeeding to maintain a lean body condition during growth. Each puppy is different; depending on his activity level and body condition, food amount may need to be adjusted. Feeding during gestation and lactation: During the last 3-4 weeks of pregnancy and while nursing, food allowances should be increased 1.5 to 2 fold maintenance levels. After weaning, the mother’s food should be adjusted to maintain her at an ideal body condition. Fresh, clean drinking water should always be available. For adult toy dogs of 1-5kg feed 30-120 g/day.
