How old is your puppy ?  I'd contact your breed club for further advice specific to your breed as they will have more experience and be able to help you accordingly - but IMO a puppy shouldn't be on 2 meals a day until it is at least 6 months of age.

Good luck, HTH, Tara x

Generally in my own medium size breed if I ahve a gutsy pup I will drop to Two meals at about 4 to 5 months, but if it is a less greedy pup I keep on 3 meals until 6 months and then on two meals to a year.

I could have this wrong, but I was told that a puppy will let you know. I used to feed mine 3 times a day and when she was 4 1/2 months, she hardly ate anything at lunchtime so I slowly cut it out. Does it not depend on the dog? Min eats at 6.30 am and 6pm and she is growing very well.
