As for wanting the other dogs food, can you feed them in different areas or put some in their x-pen or somewhere to eat?
I have started putting my oldest in her kennel to eat cause she always lies in wait and pounces on the other pups food dishes as soon as they move an inch away.  I got tired of being the food patrol cause the little one takes soooooooooooo long to eat and the biggest ones gulps it down in about 1-2 minutes. 
good luck |
I have that same problem and we have to keep an eye on all three dogs but Adie eats much better if she is near where the bigger dogs are eating. One is a 110lb german shepherd and the other is a 12lb shih tzu. The shih tzu is her adoptive mother and Adie imitates everything she does. I think if I separated them she would stop eating entirely. lol They are in different rooms but can see each other through the doorway. Sometimes I have to resort to giving Cassie a bite of Adie's food first so Adie will think she is eating Cassie's food! As far as the Xpen goes, There isn't an enclosure like that around that Adie can't get out of! I gave up on trying to keep her in one. She is a climber! When she is in a crate, she spends the time trying to figure out a way out and ignoring any food that might be in there.
I think feeding Adie and Cassie the same food is the solution, but I need to wait until Adie is old enough. Until then we will keep giving her the puppy food.
Thanks all.
