Little stinker! Maybe the kibble as reward worked for me because I started it when Max was 13 weeks old, and then Teddy follows whatever Max likes. Although Teddy can get in the habit of looking to the refrigerator for grandpa to give him a little parmesan cheese on top of his meals.

I was hoping when he was entered he would gain a few ozs. . . Nope. The breeder was right . . He is just like his Daddy . . . A perfect cookie cutter of him. . . Looks just like him too |
As we discussed, a sibling may be the solution.
As soon as Max had Teddy's little nose poking in his bowl, Max learned to chow down on his own. No guarantees, however.
