Maltese Shih Tzu: Feeding
Recommended daily amount: 1/4 to 1/2 cup of high-quality dry food a day, divided into two meals. Keep your Maltese Shih Tzu in good shape by measuring his food and feeding him twice a day rather than leaving food out all the time. If you're unsure whether he's overweight, give him the eye test and the hands-on test. First, look down at him. You should be able to see a waist. Then place your hands on his back, thumbs along the spine, with the fingers spread downward. You should be able to feel but not see his ribs without having to press hard. If you can't, he needs less food and more exercise. « Care | Next: Children & other pets »
