The other thing that nearly never fails me is, I put them and the bowl on the counter for them to eat from. Whenever I have one that is getting a special diet for a little while, I feed them on the counter so that the others can't get to the food. This has developed a firm thought in all their heads that only "special" food is served this way. Whenever they see me fix something and take the bowl to "the special place" and put a towel down, they all get freaking excited to see who's going to be the lucky pup.

An egg sounds like a good idea. I was making eggs this morning and wondering if I should feed him some. I will try that.
