Once a day or twice a day?

[eternalstudent]

Does feeding once a day make any difference to a dogs energy? for example, if I fed duke only at night, and then he went to bed, would he have less energy during the day than when he gets a morning meal too?

That might be a good way to help wear him out and eradicate some of his endless energy haha

Dogs get most of there energy from stored energy rather than instantly from food. It is simply because they don't eat an instantly useable energy source like us humans and glucose.

If you think about it from a wild hunting wolf then they need to be able to cope with fasting for days and still be able to hunt after that period.

I feed once a day with a varied time of feeding (8am - 10pm) and we have never had a problem :-)
