FEEDING

Pugs love food. They can be coerced in to doing just about anything if the promise of food is involved. Unfortunately, Pugs also tend to have weight issues. They will eat as much as you give them so extreme care must be taken to ensure they do not become overweight.

The feeding chart below is a sample schedule of what the average Pug will need as they grow. You should consult your veterinarian regarding the exact amount that is right for your Pug.


Puppy (3 to 6 months)
3 times per day, amount 1/3 cup each time

Adolescent (6 months to 1 year)
2 times per day, amount 3/4 cup each time

Active Adult (1 to 8 years)
2 times per day, amount 1/2 cup each time


Senior (8 years+)
2 times per day, amount 1/3 cup each time
