You still need to feed her good quality complete puppy food for large dogs. Depending on the brand and ingredients the amount varies, so read the instructions on the bag and feed accordingly. You should still feed her 3 times a day as she is still growing.

    Gizmo is so cute!! Puppies should not be given as much food as they want, they should be given a daily allotment that is written on their bag of food. I would take his daily allotment and divide it into two equal portions for him to be fed once in the morning and once in the evening. This is the best way to feed him. I hope this helps, enjoy your adorable puppy!
