Question Multiple dogs

How do you all handle feeding more than one yorkie (or more than one dog, in general)? I have a yorkie (Jasper) and a doxie mix (Peanut). Peanut is 4 yrs old and has always been a perfect weight for his size. He would eat until full then walk away. He never over ate. Fast forward ------ we bring a new puppy into the house (Jasper) who is 13 months at adoption. We have had 2 dogs in our house for a month now and Peanut now trys to chow down every morsel that is placed in their respective bowls. Jasper is easily distracted and steps away, only to come back to an empty bowl! He isn't a big eater but rather a grazer. My problem has been how to keep Peanut OUT of Jasper's bowl but still allow Jasper an adequate amount of time to finish his meals. Any ideas? I have tried feeding them in separate rooms, but as I said Jasper is a grazer and I'd have to keep Peanut in another room for hours!
