This is something she's perfected now, and knows exactly where to hit the bottle in order for the food to come out. I just put some food in there and of course she ate it all up, but why won't she just eat it if it's in her dish?? What a little goof ball! She prefers to work for her food rather than just have it handed to her? Does anyone else have weird food issues like this with their pups? |
wow! thats cute, and strange at the same time! what a smarty!
maybe she is afraid of the bowls you have for her!? we bought fiona this plastic bowls at first, she would not eat out of them at all, so i got the stainless steal ones, and she did fine with that!!!!! Maybe try hand feeding her too!? Fiona gets a little bit of food in her crate when i leave in the am for work, and when she gets home, i fill her bowl, but she usually wont touch it until about 9pm at night, which is odd to me...maybe she is just being picky!? (i'd talk to your vet?. i think it would be different if she werent eating at all! )
