Many people nowadays sometimes feel lonely, so a lot of people like to keep a cute puppy or kitten to accompany themselves. However, preparing to raise a pet is somewhat troublesome, and many people do not know how to solve problems that arise when raising pets. When the pet gets sick, some people choose to abandon it. Today, the editor introduces a common problem beginners face when raising Border Collies: how much dog food should be fed to a Border Collie in a day?

The Border Collie is recognized worldwide as the dog with the highest intelligence. Its feeding is also divided by age stages. Before the Border Collie is weaned, we do not need to worry at all because the mother dog will take care of it. Border Collies on the market are usually weaned. After the puppy is weaned, it can eat special puppy food. At this time, owners must pay attention because the puppy's digestive ability is not yet fully developed, so the dog food should be fully soaked and softened, about seven or eight pieces at a time, divided into three to four feedings per day.

When the Border Collie is eight months old, its body has grown to about the same size as an adult Border Collie, and the stomach capacity has also increased. At this time, the feeding frequency can be reduced to about twice a day. Border Collies are not picky eaters and there is no big difference in feeding them compared to other dogs. Adult dogs are also fed twice a day, but portion control is important. It is best to feed after a 40-minute walk. To ensure healthy growth, feeding them about seventy to eighty percent full is enough.

Adult Border Collies are fed twice a day, so how should we control their food intake? Are there any tips? The editor has a very simple method here: look at the dog's stool. Please do not have any psychological burden. Because the dog's stool is the best way to reflect the dog's physical condition. If the stool is in strip shape, with the right softness and hardness, it means the amount of food is just right. If the stool is very soft, so soft that even a dog poop clip cannot pick it up, this means the dog's food intake is too much and needs to be appropriately reduced. If the stool is too hard, it indicates insufficient food intake, and the dog should be given extra meals accordingly. This method is quite accurate, and you can try it out.
