Gross poll! I know, but I'm wondering. I have one dog that goes about 4 times a day and one that goes 1-2. If you have multiple dogs (like me) I guess you'll need to average it out or just pick one of them to vote for.
Maybe you should stop blaming the dogs and use the toilet.im jealous of all of you whose dog goes once a day! i pick up 4-6 different potties each day between the two dogs.
How old are the dogs? Do they each go about 2-3 times a day each? What are you feeding and how much of it do you feed? Do you give a lot of snacks and treats in between meals?im jealous of all of you whose dog goes once a day! i pick up 4-6 different potties each day between the two dogs.
hi Lucy,
Cody is the poo bandit. He's 10 months old and eats about 3.5-5 cups of TOTW each day. Treats are also consumed daily as we do train a little every day. Cody isn't always 4 times but I'd say at least 3.
Mandi the 4 year old goes 1-2 times each day.
I'm noticing no one else has voted 3-4 yet...
Looking at their website, it looks like they suggest about 5 cups for a 10 month old around 80 pounds. Obviously it all depends on activity level, but i'm assuming a decently active dog.
I think you might be over feeding him.
TOTW recommends 3-4 cups a day for dogs between 80-100 pounds.
Try feeding a food with more calories per cup. More calories mean less food coming in without having to deprive your pup of the nutrients he needs. It will also help in the waste department too.laren,
i just re-checked the TOTW site. for a 80-100 pound dog that is 8-12 months, they actually show feeding 4 & 2/3 cups to 5 & 1/2 cups. so im in the range they suggest, but that doesn't mean i still couldnt be over feeding my particular dog ya know...
i'll probably just try to give him less. he is hungry enough to eat it all and still want more though, so i dont want to deprive him of the nutrients he needs either
