If your puppy is less than 6 months of age, I would divide the daily allotment of food into three equal portions and feed him morning, noon, and evening. You can try mixing in some wet food to make it appealing to him, and over time decrease the amount of wet food until he is eating the dry food only. Excellent choice of food!
