Ours don't do that, but when Piper and Meadow eat, they take it out of the bowl, drop two to three pieces on the floor about 6-8 feet away from their respecitve dishes (which are also about 5 feet apart from one another) and eat them one at a time there, then run back to the bowl and repeat.
I told my wife that if I had to do that, I could really drop some weight running back and forth to my plate like that!
