Can you seperate the 2 dogs during feeding so the foster pup doesn't get the low cal food??
haha...I feed them in the same place, and at the EXACT same time so that they'll both eat their OWN food....they've done pretty well. It's funny that they both try to eat each other's food at first. But I think both of them will eat just about anything, LOL. The foster dog won't eat the treats though and won't eat apples or carrots....Max will eat EVERYTHING .

I'm just not quite sure if it's ok for me to feed this guy so much....he seems to be ok with it so far, but I don't want to tip the scales in the wrong direction (not that he's going to gain too much weight; he's REALLY thin, but I don't want to set up any bad habits either, like expecting to be fed every couple of hours for the rest of his life). I can't leave food down or Max will eat it all.
