Lately I have noticed that Luna does not eat unless one is by her side. I think she is associating her eating/crate area as being left alone because that is where we leave her during the night.
I have tried to trick her by placing the food farther away from the door, but as soon as she sees me leaving she runs to my side with food in her mouth, still chewing it. Then if I go back by her food, she runs back in and starts to eat up again, but she will still bring a pebble or two by my side and eat it there.
Did any of your puppies do this when they were smaller? I would appreciate any help. I was thinking of changing her eating area that way she could associate eating with something else and not being left alone. I am very afraid that she will starve since she doesn't go to eat unless we go with her.
Thanks everyone.
