My 2-month pug puppy is always hungry. Free-feed or scheduled meals?

Question

I have a 2 month old pug that is always hungry and always eating. What should I do, take away the food and feed him when it's time to eat or leave the food in the bowl and let him eat all he wants. Pet's info: Dog | Pug | Male | 2 months and 20 days old

You can try splitting his feedings into smaller more frequent meals. Another idea would be to get a slow feed food bowl to slow his eating down. I would also make sure that you are weighing him regularly and feeding according to the growth chart on the food. I would not recommend leaving the food down for him to eat all he wants. This could cause him bad GI upset or more serious issues like bloat. Hope this helps some. If you have any further questions or would like to discuss nutrition and feeding in more detail I am happy to provide consultation services.
