Hi there
Denver was getting 1 and 1/2 cups of food 4 times a day at 9weeks old when we first got him. You should consult your vet as to how much to feed,if you are not sure. Wink

Ok. Here is Spooky!!!! One and only Spooky we have. Smile

He is very difficult to take pictures of he moves around so quickly and won't stand in one spot for a second so I did my best to get some decent pictures.

Hey Mom what are you doing with that camera let me play with it.

Ah something is itching me I think it's the cats foult he must have giving me flees.

Hey kitty can I play with you. Oh please don't run away frome me. (he was trying to run after one of the cats after he wanted to taste him Rolling Eyes

)

Hey dad is home you can take my picture now.

I need a nap those cats really made me tired.

lovemy....ok what temp was your doodle Spooky rasied in as he may be adjusting. bring him to a vet soon for a well visit , advice etc.

Most puppies are fed 3 or 4 times a day as they are growing. You can also look on the dog food bag to see weight and food amount to feed as well.
Although your vet would probably be better at this advice .

Spooky is adorable and lookslike he has a wee devil in those eyes hahahahaa lov the pics!!!!!!!

congrats again and cute name!

Thank you guys. We are taking him to the vet first thing tomorrow morning. I will have to ask the breeder what temp they have in their house. Spooky has a very thick coat I am thinking he is just hot after running around the house and playing. I am going to add 4th feeding to his day and will speak to the vet about how to feed him and what temp he thinks we should have in the house. Boy I am a little rusty with this stuff the last time I had a puppy 8 years ago when I got Hope and prior to that it was my 13 year old lab who just passed way a month ago. Since than I have not had any puppies but I think I did a decent job raising them and hope to do the same for this little guy.

Please wait until your puppy is 8 wks old before using the shampoo for fleas. Most will say not to use on puppies less than 8 wks of age.

As for feeding, yes, feed him 3 times a day. It's usually about 1/2 cup each sitting and you can adjust that as he grows. It's usually a good idea to go by the amount suggested on the back of your puppy food bag.

Sounds like you are having fun with Spooky. I bet he is a character, can't wait to see the pics.
