Ok, Pumpkin comes home in one week and I am soooo nervous.
This is probably a silly question, but how do I know how much food to give her?
She will be 9 weeks old and we intend to feed her 3 times a day.
TIA

It tends to go on their weight. Your breeder should tell you how much they are feeding the pups. The back of the bag of food gives you a guideline, this is usually on the high side, for instance Say 30- 50 g per kilo of body weight. I would go with the lower end rather than the upper and see how you go, you should be aiming for a steady weight gain.
I get Fudge weighed on a monthly basis at the vets when I get her worming tablets. HTH
