What if you just kept Maggie's food in your bedroom on the floor, so she still has free reign but it's away from Chloe's food? I'm sorry but I'm firm and honest. I say what I feel. I would tell her that if each roomate having two dogs is going to work, then she needs to be more considerate. You aren't going to change your dogs habits just because of her dog. Her dog is a puppy and can adjust more easily as opposed to Maggie who is used to her routine. Maybe she needs to crate train her puppy so she doesn't have to worry about pottying or maybe she can buy a baby gate and keep the puppy in her room so she won't eat Maggie's food. I would tell her how it is. Otherwise you will ALWAYS be the one compromising. |
