Your bull terrier is a very active dog who requires a nutritious and high-quality diet. Feeding your dog properly will prevent premature aging, coat problems, and serious health issues.
Feeding your dog at scheduled mealtimes is the best way to control how much he eats, resulting in better weight control and allowing you to monitor his health. (Lack of appetite is often the first sign of illness.) Free feeding, a method in which food is left out all day, can wreak havoc on the digestive system and lead to obesity.
The best feeding schedule for your bull terrier depends on his age and lifestyle. While your vet or breeder can best advise you as to what kind of feeding plan is appropriate for your bull terrier’s particular life stage, the chart below provides a general outline.
Puppies (under 6 months) : feed 3 small meals per day, Puppy formula (protein less than 25%)
Adolescents (6–18 months) : feed 2–3 meals per day, Active formula
Active adults (2–7 years) : feed 2 meals per day, Adult or active formula
Adult or Seniors (7+ years) : feed 2–3 meals per day, Adult or senior formula
