Donating YT 30K Club Member | When do you cut your puppy to 2 meals a day? Cali is still getting 3 meals a day and she will be 8 months old next week. Lately she doesn't seem interested in eating too much so I am wondering if she doesn't need as much food. I have cut the portions slightly but I am wondering if I would have better luck getting her to eat 2 times a day instead of 3. She is now 4.4 lbs and gaining about an ounce a week but I am afraid with her history of hypoglcemia that 12 hours between meals is too long?

| To Be On The Safe Side If she has a history with hypoglycemia, I would try to make her portions smaller but keep the 3 times a day, for now, I would maybe make changes after she is a year old. As you now these little yorkies can ge delicate.
