      Thank you for your time putting out a very good video. I have a 85-90 Mal-lab mix. After year 1 1/2 I switched to a complete raw diet at 1.5 lb of food daily. I recently changed from 2 times a day to 1 which is in the evening. He gets around 3-7 miles a day on mountain hikes off collar his pace varies depending on what he is doing. I only feed in evening so he can relax and digest his food slow and to help prevent any chance of bloating or flipping his stomach. He is an athlete that is fast and powerful and getting out going hard can be very dangerous. I follow basically the BARF diet the results have been amazing.

      I have little dogs and they can’t eat just once a day. They don’t eat very much at one time like some bigger dogs do. And they are picky eaters and less food motivated than other breeds. Never say never but I don’t think I could do this. it’s just not the same for little dogs vs big dogs in my experience

    I recently subscribed and have a question I hope you can answer. I live in a state where the favorite dog is either a Pit Bull or a German Shepard. There are many strays, and while I plan on walking in the safest area I can find, there have been many lethal attacks on small dogs like mine. Please consider making a video on what to do when one of these strays or off leash dogs is approaching and what legal sprays we can carry to protect our dogs and ourselves.

      @Starry_Night_Sky7455 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yeah but what do you feed? If it's just dry kibble, might not be a grand idea. If you feed something in appropriate quantities with adequate water content that is protein and fat based ( kinda like Keto - can be raw or cooked) that might be fine. Might. I think twice per day is better. Ive had several large dogs all live long healthy lives. Gut motility and *hydration* is improved with that 2x per day meal schedule. Also if someone has a dog that has high food drive eating twice per day can help prevent that dog from going bonkers. Some dogs will develop pica where they consume anything like dirt (or worse...poop!) to satisfy their need to eat. Two meals per day makes way more sense than this silly fad-like orthorexia study. I could care less what this study found (not doubting the claim though as the same intermittent fasting has similar positive effects for humans). My experience suggests 2x per day is far more sound over a lifetime. Quality of life is more important. But if your dog is happy on a once daily feeding routine, that's fine. Some dogs are like this. Generally I think twice per day makes more sense. Keeps them content.

      @@Starry_Night_Sky7455 Hi! She is a high energy working breed and gets a ton of exercise a day. She is decently good motivated but more so loves her toys. I feed her a varied protein diet of probiotic kibble and frozen raw/freeze dried raw. Mostly fish protein because it’s kept her coat in great condition, as she is a shepherd so we deal with less shedding with as much fish as she gets. I add different supplements to help with joint support since she is a shepherd and very active. I also add hydration in several forms whether it be water, bone broth, or goats milk. I prefer to feed her once at night because she is running around/getting walked/playing during the day and I want to avoid any chance of her getting bloat. You bring an interesting point that twice a day meals would keep them happier, but I think that’s putting human emotion into meal time and meals. I used to think of meals in that way but have come to learn that dogs think of a meal as just that- they’re getting food, not how many times or how they feel about getting fed if that makes any sense.

    I eat once a day during the week and have been for 20+ years, not because of health reasons, it was a habit I picked up accidentally through a previous job. I accidentally forgot to feed my dog recently (I was sick and slept for over 20 hours) and it got me thinking about this subject. I continued to feed her in the AM with a snack in the afternoon for the past 3 weeks. I will say she doesn’t walk as far as she did prior, we typically walked more than 2 miles in the afternoon, now it’s more like 1.5 and she needs a rest. Not sure if it’s the food or just getting older.

    I do think that every dog is different depending on weight and any pre-existing medical conditions. I adopted a 4yr old dog, 6yrs ago, who I soon after, discovered had a thyroid condition, as well as, DCM. I fed her 2x a day so she could receive her medication 2x a day with food. She made it a little over 5yrs with me before a massive heart attack took her, unexpectedly this summer. Super grateful for the time her cardiologist was able to keep her mind and body, happy and healthy. she live her best life, right up tell the very end.

    When he was a puppy I fed him twice a day and then when he was about 12 months I began feeding him once a day as I have been 'intermittent fasting' for the past 35 years and it seemed obvious to me that a dog should eat only once a day when you look at a dog's digestive system, one big sack and a short tube to the backside.

    Even though they did see this with the owner responses they got…they even said the this just means it warrants further investigation. It’s not definitive at all. I personally don’t think as a Vet tech for over 20 years that it’s healthy for them to have one meal a day. That’s too much volume for one day and really their blood glucose levels would be better regulated actually with two meals. Also, large breed dogs could bloat with a once a day volume

      I have a mini dachshund who I’m sure would do fine with once a day. My chihuahua on the other hand would do fine with non stop eating 😣
      I feed them twice a day but would love to move to once because of everything in your video. Definitely they beg more or at least the chihuahua does. Also I am a shift worker & that’s been a struggle for picking times of day. I’ve been trying to stick with -every 12 hours but now that seems too far apart. Ugh. I don’t know what to do.
      I make their food myself about every 6 weeks. Freeze it. They each get a quarter cup. We get good long walks in about 45’-an hour each or every other day.
      I just moved to 8 hour night shifts which is different & they seem to be having trouble waiting the full 12 hours but it’s probably just because I’m up & awake & notice. 😂

    My dog gets reflux if he doesnt eat often enough. He has unlimited access (he can ask for food using a talking button & he gets it in enrichment toys/bowls only) because he's able to stop when he's no longer hungry & he's not overweight at all, his weight is stable. This way he's able to adjust on his own depending on his activity level, which can vary since we're heavily involved in dog sports. Which is amazing, and as long as he's not overweight I dont think im ever going to stop.
    My cats eat once a day because they are a little overweight (obviously they are much less active) and they never had any issue with it. I would say it totally depends, listen to your pets' needs and adapt...

She ate it so often that she didn’t want to eat it anymore (I don’t blame her cause I’d get tired of eating the same thing that much) I thought that because I like steak so much I was treating her well, but she had black skin on her belly (yeast I think) and her coat wasn’t as shiny as it once was.

    I'm at my witts end I have gotten a Great Dane puppy at 8 weeks old her stools were like cow pie consistency she is now 18 weeks old and she's still having this problem. The Vets given her Visbiom probiotics, pro pectlin tablets they have wormed her 2x last time for 5 days they put her on Metronidazole even after her stool came back no worms nor Giardia. I added 1physillium fiber capsule per feeding 3x a day. And I'm now trying Tummy Powder/anti-diarrheal Bentonite clay. She was being fed Purina one large breed puppy by the Breeder and the Vet had me put her on Purina Pro Plan large breed puppy. Both of those are horrible foods and I let the vet know that I felt that way I asked about feeding her a home cooked food or adding a raw topper and the Vet was extremely against it. I am feeding Victor Beef and Rice to my other 3 dogs. I wish I had a good recipe for a cooked food for my puppy and my other 3 girls. My puppy has had horrific explosions of diarrhea 24 hrs after each of her Vaccinations. She has pooped normally formed poop several different times but as each poop after that she goes right back to the cow pie poop. I don't know what to do I have given her brown rice and chicken stock saved the rice water and added that into her dry food the rice helps she's getting 7 cups of dry a day 2 cups at the am and then 2 1/2 for the other 2 feelings. I bought raw instinct and I have a raw frozen 7 lb tube of puppy food from my local small pet store. I want her off of the purina food I just don't know what to get for her giant breed and being a growing Dane. Her energy is and has been great her temperament is great. She's got a very very good appetite wants her food and her Labradoodle sisters food too lol. I just don't know where to turn any suggestions Or advice would be a godsend. I do follow Doctor Becker and Rodney Habib. And I have the forever Dog. I have pumpkin I'll give her some tonight not sure on how much but she's gonna get some.

Plus no carbs, some fat from the skin, plenty of protein, and its cheeper than dog food!!! If your dogs is small breed place chicken in a bag and beat it with a hammer then freeze it, no need to worry about salmonella. Your welcome!!

    Great info. Once a day is the most common for good reason. It makes sense since their ancestors even skipped meals regularly. Wolves can go 2 weeks without a meal. Insulin resistance is an epidemic for humans who have eaten tons of carbs the last century. Dogs are now diabetic like never before. Along with avoiding carbs like the plague, they'd benefit likely even more than humans do with IF and eating less often to avoid spiking insulin. Mine eat raw and natural home made with an occasional fast, skipping a day's meal with just broth.

    I do enjoy most of your videos. However, I was not too pleased with one of your most recent ones. The one about frequency of feeding. I heartily disagree with you on this. The trouble with “influencers” on YT and everywhere else,is that people tend to hang on their word and do as they say. There is not alot of reliable research available out there…at least not enough to make me deprive my dog of her breakfast and dinner. I believe that dogs need to be fed 2 meals a day. I believe one should always measure out the appropriate amount of food that will keep their dog at an appropriate weight for its age and activity level. Give your dog a variety of protein -rich foods,do your research on ingredients,feed the best quality that you can,never give the dog human snacks or food.. high-quality,limited ingredient dog foods,serve a bone broth or other liquid in their food. Eggs are a great source of vitamins and minerals…only organic ,raw of poached.. 😅
