The bigger the meal, the longer I let my dogs sleep it off. I
usually feed my adult dogs every other day, and the amount of food
generally encourages them to rest without intervention on my part. I
would not expect them to be available for serious enforced activity
for several hours though.

When I fed twice a day (as I am still sort of doing for my 9mo pup) I
would not initiate rollicking adventure for at least an hour after
meals.

Depends on the dogs and the meals, I think. Also may be a deeply
rooted holdover from the "wait an hour before swimming" rule imposed
by our mothers (well, some of our mothers).

In the great tradition of shoulder-shrugging disclaimers--this works
for me.
