How to feed a three-month-old Corgi

Medium-sized dog food

Corgis are medium-sized dogs, and at three months old, you can buy medium-sized dog milk cake or puppy food. The feeding amount should be referred to the recommended amount on the dog food packaging bag. Feed your dog at least four times a day, in small quantities. Then observe if the stool is normal, shaped like a bar, and slightly hard. If the stool is soft or not formed, reduce the amount. Usually, dogs will defecate within half an hour after eating. If they don't defecate until the next meal, increase the amount accordingly.

Corgi feeding amounts at different ages

The feeding amount of a Corgi should be determined according to the specific situation of the dog food. The feeding amounts vary from different dog foods. Generally, a newly weaned Corgi needs to be fed a total of about 100g of food per day. At three months old, a Corgi needs about 140g of food per day, and at four months old, the total amount increases to about 160g. Adjust the feeding amount based on the specific situation of the Corgi. The exact feeding amount can also be guided by the recommended feeding amount on the dog food packaging.

When Corgis are picky eaters, owners can feed them with their usual favorite foods or dog food. Feeding them only canned food and meat can lead to severe picky eating, excessive protein and meat intake, which can cause obesity, pancreatitis, diabetes, and other cardiovascular diseases in dogs. Therefore, it is recommended that owners mix foods and encourage their dogs to exercise to enhance their appetite.
