Little Theif Piper snatches and runs. I always see him running like the wind through the kitchen, into the dining room and then he tries to hide, but the crunching noise always gives him away. I usually say his name sternly when I bust him and then he'll stop for awhile but the funny thing is that my Boxer will feed him the older dogs' food. Beowulf will take a mouthful of food and bring it into the dining room and drop it near Piper and then he'll walk away and Piper will then eat it. It's actually cute to know that Piper has his big brother trained because Beo is definitely doing it for his sake. Piper also licks all over Beo's face and inside his mouth when Beo is done eating...so cute to see. When I asked at Tuesday's vet visit I was told that it is fine if Piper is eating a few bites of the older dog food. The vet said the larger, harder kibble helps to clean his teeth, so I've been letting him go with just a bite or two. |
