Once a day. I feed in the mornings as it's convenient to me, my partner feeds at night, when it's convenient for him.

I feed twice a day: sometime in the am before I leave for work and usually immediately after I get home from work (which has a 3 hour range depending on the day).

Depends on which dog really...but it's between 2-4 1/2 cups each. I'll give em' a raw egg here and there and some hamburger on the weekends just as a treat. I'm feeding Diamond right now but seriuosly thinking about making a switch, again. I go through about 65-70 cups a day, it was less but my pups arent so "puppyish" anymore ;)

I feed em' in the evening time because that's when they do their eating really. It's too hot for them to want to eat durring the day and if I fed em' in the morning I doubt they'd eat much. I feed em' on a different routine durring the winter time but winters arent very long here so...

It depends. Summer, they don't want to eat till it cools off, so around 7:00.About two and a half cups. In the winter they want more, about three cups, but in the morning. thede two dogs weigh in at about 55 and 50 lbs.

About 3/4 of a cup of food, every 12 hours, give or take. "Cookies" are sometimes given in halves a few hours after dinner.

Once a day. Sometimes they gorge and fast, like today. Tomorrow they won't get anything because today they had rabbits.

right now all 3 are eating twice a day cause jesse has to have pancreatic meds in her food 2x a day.. usually they eat once a day, with sonny and rufus getting 1 lb of raw, and jesse getting 2 lbs of raw .. now their food is cut in half for both feedings.

Once a day in the late afternoon early evening.. I keep odd hours since I work 3rd shift.. so I feed them after I wake up and get going.

Raw/wild diet. Different times of the day. Different size meals; sometimes very large, other times small. There are days when I feed consecutively and other days when I fast 2-3 days in between. Been doing it for decades.

On a raw food diet dogs can go for longer periods of times without eating because they aren't being fed fillers, so the majority of their diet is being absorbed and they are healthier.

This is something I've thought about doing before. I may PM you in the future about this if you don't mind. :)
