Mine are on scheduled feedings, twice a day, they each (4 dogs) have their own bowls and always eat at eating time. One of mine gains weight when she looks at a kibble, lol. I have to know exactly how much she is eating
They never try to steal each others food, they all have been trained to use their own bowls, but, after they are all four done, AprilLove goes to every bowl and licks them until they shine (stainless)
