Just put their food bowls down for 15 minutes, twice per day. They'll get used to it. And yes, if possible, feed them separately so the fluffies don't grab more than their fair share.

It's good they get a lot of exercise. I think maybe just adding 10 minutes per day of fetch will make a difference. Did your vet give you any guidance about how to help them lose weight?

Also, maybe keep Trixie on the Royal Canin since she has special dietary restrictions. The others might do better on a higher protein food.
