What i am doing with Yukio is placing him inside a crate with his bowl at feeding time...so that they other don't eat his puppy food. And also Mei Ling in another crate because sometimes she snaps at the other girls if they try to eat around her...idk why she has a slight food aggression towards Ting Ting but to prevent lunch/dinner time fighting i now crate Mei Ling...i can tell by her body language when she is going to have one of those food aggression episodes...my other 3 girls although each have their own bowl of food...they like to eat of of the same one...lol...once they are all full or so they will jump/climb on their futon and i pick up the bowls and let Mei Ling out...what is left will be put down for dinner....Yukio being that he is only 5 months old takes a little longer so i keep him in the small kennel until he is done....but sometimes he whines because he sees the girls on the futon so before i let him out i ask if he is done eating...and 90% of the time he is not...because he will pick up another kibble or two and i can hear him chomping away...then once he is done he whines a lot more...then i would let him out and pick up his bowl...he isn't shy about letting me know he is hungry....lol..i don't keep his food down because he is eating puppy food and my girls don't need the extra calories...especially Ting Ting...she can and would eat anything in site...she is food driven...she is a bit overweight so i have to cut back on her food...
i guess my suggestion would be to crate one or the other during feeding time. |
