[nagdu] Feeding dog during long day?

[Brandy Pinder]

Hi danielle, 
I would gradually start feeding her dinner later that way by next semester she will be accustomed to eating around eight. And still feed her before you leave for class.

> All this talk about feeding and schedule brings me to a question I have myself. 1'M in college and I feed my dog at 7:00 in the morning and 5:00 in the afternoon. Next semester I'll be in class from 3:00 to 6:50 in the afternoon. I also have a class at 10:20 in the morning to 12:30. I right now take her out at 12. how would you guys feed and park your dogs with this schedule? I don't want to feed her too early or too late.

>> She usually eats her dinner between 5:00-6:00 PM when we're home, or I have plans for the rest of an evening, though she has eaten later.  I have never been much of a schedule person, and Jenny doesn't seem to mind minor changes in routine in the evening... but if I am working out at the gym, she'll get her dinner when we get home at 7:00PM.
>> I am wondering if it might be helpful and keep her focused to feed her before leaving my workouts... or would this likely confuse her? Is this just a quirk I have to live with?  If I feed her a partial meal, how "partial" should I feed her?
