I think I'm a born worrier and I reckon this question has probably been asked sooo many times, so please forgive me!
My Staffie bitch had pups 8 wks ago and we have kept 2 of the pups; all the rest are now very happily rehomed.
The boys are on 5 meals a day still and now I'm beginning to wonder if I should really be feeding them only 4 times a day? Would this be sensible? They have very very healthy appetites and are very bouncy and healthy but I certainly don't want to be over feeding them.
They're on Purina Proplan Puppy.
Thank you!

I would have thought at 8 weeks 4 meals will be fine. You may have to increase the quantity given at each feed to make sure they are having enough over the same 24 hour period.
Are you only feeding dried?
I always like to give my pups at least one meal of scrambled eggs and cheese per day but of course that is down to personal preference :-)
