feed

We always feed at night. We feed the dogs we're not hunting, (mainly to keep them quiet while were gone) and feed the dogs we hunted when we get back. I have always heard a hungry dog hunts better than one thats been fed. ??? Thats why we feed the way we do. Right or wrong I dont know but it works for us.

feen mine in the afternoon or night, but give them enough that there is always some left the next afternoon when i feed. i like for them to have free choice. i usually let them miss at least one meal every 2 or 3 days or so to make sure all the feed doesn't get to old or molded. works for me and my dogs all stay fat and slick weather i'm hunting 5-7 nights a week or just 2 nights a week
