Cant remember how old she is but if she is <6mths 3 times a day and +6mths 2 times day

hiya shes 8weeks old

I always did 4 times < 6months 3 times <12months & 2times > 12months...

But like people not every dog is the same...I do think at that age she defo needs at least 3 meals a day

thats why poss she is not eating her 3rd meal if there is no taster in.
Also you say a dish of food and tripe for both her brekky and dinner..how much tripe and how much wagg, if you are giving her too much at these meals she may not be hungry

about to handfuls of buscuit and i buy a block of tripe n split it between the 2 dogs so half each,yeh maybe shes fillin up on the 2 meals that wont harm her thoe will it?

I keep saying this,... its been so long since I had a pup I am not sure if I should be posting.

I dont think what you are giving her will hurt her, but I would give her less food more often
