Hello there! Yes, it is perfectly fine to feed the foods separately just be mindful of portion control as Daisy is still a growing puppy. I would recommend half of the recommended amounts of each of the foods. Beagles are a breed that we tend to see frequently struggling with obesity, so being mindful of this at an early age is great for Daisy's long term health. Hopefully this helps! I would be more than happy to consult with you regarding any additional questions you may have!
