Ok, i just got three new mini schnauzer's Lizzie, lucky and jasper. how much do i feed them.
thanksHow much food do you give a mini schnauzer?It really depends on the brand of food! If he were on beneful, my dog should be eating 4 cups a day, but on Canidae he only eats 2 cups a day. The latter is just higher quality so less needs to go in.

Just start about midrange of what the bag says, and see who is looking too thin or plump and adjust it from there. Don't be surprised if your dogs don't eat *quite* as much as the bag says if they are all spayed or neutered - fixed dogs consume less calories and most bags list the calorie requirements for intact dogs.

Congrats on your new dogs.|||On the back of the dog food bag there should be instructions. In general, Mini Schnauzer puppies should be fed 1/4 cups of food for 3 times a day. When they get a little older, feed them 2 times a day with 1/2 cup of dog food. Make sure if they are at least 1 year old, they can be switched to adult dog food. Hope this helped!How much food do you give a mini schnauzer?Okay. Here is what I found very helpful.

Step 1: Weigh the dog
Step 2: Calculate the calories (here is an amazing site for that: http://www.mycockerspaniel.com/mer.htm)
Step 3: Look at the calories per cup of food on the back of the kibble bag.
Step 4: Calculate the amount of calories the dog needs and amount of cups he needs.

You can do the last step by (example weight 16 lbs, both those calorie examples vary with the type of food and weight of dog)
550 calories divided ( / ) by the amount of calories per cup=
550 divided by 400= 1.3 cups a day

Hope I helped.

Here is how to feed them:
Feed them at separate ends of the room.

Put the bowls down and give them 10 minutes to eat all the food (if you are feeding 2 times a day - which is usually advised) then next meal time, start with the same amount of food as the first meal. Missing one meal doesn't exactly matter. I hope you understand|||I'm not familiar with them kind of dogs but when my dog was a puppy I went from the chart on the back of the puppy food you don't want to feed them to much because your trying to train them right.How much food do you give a mini schnauzer?The instructions are on the dog food bag.

Feed according to their age (puppy or adult) and size. The portions and frequency are listed as instructions.|||Ask when you take them down the vets tomorrow, it will be on the basis of their weight and size
