I went from doing way too much, different kinds of cooked to mush food, a 
couple different bags of dog food mixed ahead, boy, when I think of all that I 
used to do.  And seemed to always have worries over digestion and inconsistent 
poops.  

Now.....

I feed kibble...two dogs 2x a day, but give Dreamer a snack at lunch (Tennie 
gets a few kibbles so she feels included), I crockpot soupbones or something 
like that to make a nice broth which I dilute like crazy, freeze in smallish 
container and pour just enough for a quick moistening (doesn't get soggy or 
drown in broth) over kibble just before I feed them.  1/2 a milkbone sometime 
during the day and their teeth get brushed and cleaned when I do their nails.


Consistent poop, clean teeth (and trimmed nails):-)


Works for me.

I also feed twice a day for the same reason someone else mentioned. Too much
food to cram into the stomach at once. I use crock type bowls, they don't
slide around and are sturdy and easy to wash. I wash them by hand with soap
and hot water. The puppies eat separately from the adults, one of my bitches
prefers to eat in her crate, the others on a mat inside the dog room. I
never feed outside as it attracts flies and ants.
