Danielle, 
I would say slowly adjust your pups feeding time. Although, I am sure that if it were a sudden change, your pup would adjust too after a little while. 
I have classes from 9:30 to 2 pm straight through. A short break and then another class, until 5. Pup is fed in the morning at six. And then we are not home until seven. That is my schedule on Thursday and Tuesday. Its slightly different for Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. My point in telling you all of this is, adjusting of feedings and relieving all might need to be adjusted. Do it now, so that you all can get into a routine. 
Hope that helps from a busy university student too,

> 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.

>> jenny has been doing really well on the whole over the past few months, but I do have a quick question.
>> 
>> She eats breakfast between 6:00-6:30 every morning, because I go to work by 7:30.  On days where we don't do anything after work, she is nearly flawless in her work, but if I have appointments after work, say after 6:00 PM, she just loses her head.
>> 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?

>> Any advice would be appreciated!
