Feeding times?

[Stinkbomb]

What times of the day do you feed your doggies and do you exercise them before or after feeding?? Just curious

Normally about this time, for both the labs and the schnauzer. Exercised after, but not for about half an hour/an hour after.

Mine gets her brekkie whenever she crawls out of her bed
and tea about 5/6

During the week she goes out lunch time with mum, and in the evening with me when I get back from work, so after her tea

Weekends she has a walk in the mornings anytime then usually a run down the field with me before tea. Then sleeps allllllll evening

I feed mine twice a day - I have done ever since I had bigger dogs, as it seems to be an awful lot of all-in-one to give them in one meal

So during the week they are fed at 7am and 7pm, at weekends it can vary as I feed them after I have ridden so about 11am and 6pm?

I always exercise them and then feed them

Or if I do feed them first I leave a while before I take them for a walk - left over from feeding horses I suppose

Mine is fed once a day and dinner time - approx 5.30pm. I don't take her out directly after.

Otto gets fed twice a day, at around 7am and 5pm.
He gets walked in the morning a couple of hours after his breakfast (depending on when I finish the mucking out) and then in the afternoon about an hour before his dinner.
Once it gets lighter he wil get walked before his breakfast, at lunchtime and then a walk in the evening about an hour after his dinner.

Mine fed twice a day (7 month old pup just stopped her midday meal), 8 am and about 5 pm, though I move evening meal a bit later in the summer. I leave them at least an hour, preferably two before exercise as I am paranoid about bloat.

Thanks everyone i was just curious!! feed Alfie about 7am and 7pm and we walk either before or after morning meal ( depending on work or not and always over and hour later! ) and we walk about 2 hours after tea

I feed them at about 8, 12, 16 and 22. Sometime before the first three meals we've been out for a walk, after the last meal they get to go out in the garden for the last pee for the day and when they get in they get their daily raw carrot. When we're at the summer-home, with a larger fenced in garden, they only get two walks per day + we're usually out in the garden for an hour or more per day.

Bess is fed three times a day by the mother in law....breakfast, dinner and tea time.

I feed Jasper a handful of food in the morning after his first walk of the day and the rest of his daily quota after his tea time walk. I always know that that when he goes for subsequent walks after feeding that he's ready for a poop.
