My little Lola walks around her bowl a few times while she's eating too! I thought that was so bizarre, and I didn't know why she did it. My boyfriend thinks she's just looking for a good angle to dig in. She'll eat a couple bites, then walk around it, then eat some more, walk around...etc. I don't know about yours, but Lola is extremely submissive. Maybe this is just submissive behavior?
I wouldn't be worried though. Just love him for his differences
I don't know though, I'm definitely not an expert in this area.
