How often does everyone feed there pups and how much? Archie seems constantly hungry, I'm not sure if he is just greedy or I'm not feeding him enough

I do feed him 4 times a day. He has half a pouch of puppy food each time. Is this enough or not?

Is there a guide on the pouch? Or do they have a website with recommended amounts?

I can not find any info on it online but most supermarket food is not so good, maybe try another recommended food like James welbeloved or fish for dogs.

There is a list of food recommendations here

To add to the above, I feed Roxy JWB, If your budget stops you from buying the best available food, then buy the best you can afford.

No I have not, sorry, go to a local shop and ask if they have any samples for you to try and see what she likes, you can register on fish for dogs for there puppy club and they will send you some samples out.
