Feeding Guide for French Bulldog Puppies

The puppy period is the most important stage of growth and development of dogs. The body grows rapidly, so sufficient nutrition must be provided.
It is worth noting that dogs under 4 months old should not be too obsessed with fat and invest in a lot of meat. The dog's stomach should first be well-conditioned. Therefore, if the dog is four months old and does not lack nutrition, it is most valuable to ensure the continuous input of dog food and goat milk powder. Other nutritional products should be supplemented according to whether the dog is deficient.
Puppies under 3 months old should be fed at least 4 times a day. Puppies aged 4-6 months have increased food intake and rapid weight gain, and the amount of daily feed required also increases, and they should be fed at least 3 times a day. Dogs aged 6 months and beyond can be fed twice a day.

How to observe whether French Bulldog puppies are full: touch their belly to check their bowels

First touch, the place touched is the dog’s abdomen. We wait until the dog has finished eating. Touch its belly with your hand. The way to tell is if the dog's belly is full and hard to the touch. That means we’ve almost eaten. If your dog’s belly is a little flat and soft to the touch, it means your dog is not full yet. If your dog’s belly is so stretched out that it feels hard enough to ring like a bell, then he must have been fed too much.
Look at the stool to see if the dog is defecating and whether it is full. There are two criteria for this judgment: firstly, to see whether the dog defecates regularly every day under normal circumstances, and secondly, to see whether the dog defecates every time. the specific situation of the object. Under normal circumstances, dog excrement should be moderately soft and hard, can be picked up from the floor, and is mostly earthy yellow in color. On the other hand, if it is found that the dog’s excrement is in the form of hard particles, it means that the food usually given is too small and needs to be increased. If the dog’s excrement is relatively sparse, it means that the food given is too much and we need to reduce the amount.
If the dog seems very satisfied after eating and waddles to the side to rest or play, it means it is full. If the dog hides the food, it means there is too much food, and the owner needs to pay more attention. .
