I have 3 adult dogs and I have always fed them once a day.

Are their any benefits to feeding them twice a day?

Thanks x

For some breeds it reduces the risk of a GDV.

I think it just gives them something to look forward to. Breaks up the day and provides a bit of stimulation.

I think many dogs will be quite hungry after having to wait 24 for a meal, and an empty stomach can result in them vomiting up bile.

If I feed mine once a day they gobble their food down and make themselves sick so I feed them in the morning and in the evening

I think I am going to change it then. I have been thinking about it for a while and it does seem a bit unfair to only feed once a day.

Thanks for your comments x

We've always fed our dogs twice a day but that's because breakfast isnt really much We give our dogs bonio's (puppy for mika) for breakfast and meat and mix for dinner

Someone told me it was bad to feed them only once a day as they will gobble their food - which Megan used to do.

We now feed her a handful of biscuits in the morning after her walk then her normal main food at tea time. I think it has stopped her eating as quickly as she used to.
