Also, you will find that the "recommended" amount of food on the dog food bag is usually way to much... it doesn't matter so much for a puppy but after the dog is a year or so old, you might not need to feed him/her as much as it says to feed a dog of that weight based on the chart on the dog food container (they just want to sell more food and don't care if your dog gets too fat).

And NEVER feed your dog table scraps no matter how cute they are... it leads to bad habits and begging.

Good luck!
