LouiseMessenger Posted December 24, 2018 Report Share Posted December 24, 2018 Hi guys, just looking for a bit of advice. We are just in the process of setting routine for or 18month rescue and I’m trying to decide if it’s best to feed him before or after his walks. I know you need to leave it for 1hr either but does anyone know which way round works best? Thanks 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelseafan Posted December 24, 2018 Report Share Posted December 24, 2018 Hi, congratulations on your new addition, I’ve always fed mine after, but that’s the routine I set early on so they’re used to it now.

2Huskyfun Posted December 25, 2018 Report Share Posted December 25, 2018 My rule of thumb has been 2 hour prior or after a run or hard play time. (They) say 30 minutes after a run but I don’t chance it. These guys are not really a high risk for bloat or twisted guts but, I don’t chance it and have heard of Huskies getting it. I feed mine at 6 AM and have trained them to lay down for 30 minutes afterwards. They have now gotten to the point were they jump back in bed with me for 2 hours. Then we wake up, I have my coffee and breakfast, then we go for our walk/ run. At night they start laying down around 5 PM where I feed them (by their crates) I feed around 6 PM. Then they do their last play time around 8. Then bed time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BingBlaze n Skyla Posted December 25, 2018 Report Share Posted December 25, 2018 I feed mine after , they get home from their last walk at around 6pm they get fed around half 6 but only because I go and pick my mum up inbetween otherwise they would get their dinner straight after their walk Sent from my [device_name] using http://Husky Owners mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rachael_Astro Posted December 26, 2018 Report Share Posted December 26, 2018 I feed mine after, it’s a dogs natural instinct to feed after a walk as they used to eat after a long hunt Sent from my iPhone using Husky Owners Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
petertmartin Posted December 26, 2018 Report Share Posted December 26, 2018 We feed ours before hand as it gets her out of the kitchen in the morning. She doesn't always eat first thing sometimes she'll leave her food for the whole daySent from my [device_name] using http://Husky Owners mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emma Posted December 26, 2018 Report Share Posted December 26, 2018 I feed mine an hour or so beforehand. It’s just personal preference really Sent from my iPhone using Husky Owners Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
