I've always been a twice a day feeder (terrified of bloat) and I noticed on the Pro Plan bag they recommend once a day feeding. Does anyone just feed once a day?

Where are you seeing this? I just looked all over the Pro Plan bag and only found the feeding chart with the excellent recommendation not to take that chart as gospel (paraphrasing here ;) ) and to adjust according to age/activity/body condition.

I feed once a day after 6 months because it is the standard practice for the dog guide school we have raised puppies for since 1991. By the way, they feed Pro Plan, adult from 4 months.

To the right of the chart where it denies being gospel, it ends with ''... for an average, active, adult fed once a day.''

2x/day feeder here. I try to get each meal exactly 12 hours apart, how anal retentive. :roll2:

I fed once a day until our puppy joined us. My older dog wouldn't eat in the morning so I stoped offering. Now days, if the puppy is eatting, she has to have some food too.

We do 2x a day, and the pups are still on 3x a day.

i guess we'll stick with the 2 feedings Feeding the total amount of food required at one feeding seems hard on the stomach.

I feed my older Labs once a day and the pups twice, it's worked out very well for us.

By Jove, it does say that! I need my eyes examined. ;)

PS - many the dog food feeding suggestions are NOT at all accurate. They tend to recommend way too much food. I would suggest starting with no more than 2 cups twice a day and seeing how your dog does.

The Pro Plan adult chicken and rice says 2 1/3-3 cups for 51-75 pound dogs. I have had to feed 3 cups or more to keep my Labs' ribs from showing. 4 cups is well above the recommendation on the bag.
