I guess I sound like I am beating a dead horse...it was posted they only got food every 12 hrs in a large group...just about every puppy is going to learn food aggression in a situation as this...and you are correct I have also not any pups overeat to the point of bloating or vomiting..but then again they are not ravenous at meal time...
I am just a bit pissed off at the breeder for being so uncaring to her puppies needs..then again as most know, I am hard on breeders..it's my job!
