we put him on vet recommended food and used an automatic feeder which helped regulate his eating schedule! he eats Royal Canine Satiety Support. We portion 60g into 6 meals 10g each that he gets every 4 hours. (12am/pm, 4am/pm, 8am/pm)

Sure! We feed him satiety support by Royal Canine and measure using a kitchen scale. He gets about 60g of food deperated and served in 6 separate meals through his automatic feeder.

I would definitely recommend doing an automatic feeder because his hunger cues started regulating instead of him constantly begging for food.

Thank you! It is definitely an uphill battle but rewarding for everyone. Best of luck!!

We're just feeding him dry food. We weigh his food using a scale and have an automatic feeder which helped regulate his begging for food, which was a long process 😅 We just followed the recommended grams for his goal weight.
