Piper also plays with her food. When she was a tiny puppy she would fling the kibble up and over her head then chase it down. She would play like that for quite a while before she ate it. Now that she is a big 1 year old she'll take the piece of kibble run across the room and eat it very grown up like. I have never seen her just eat kibble right from the bowl.

Looks just like my Zoie!!! LOL How cute.

I am hysterical, that is the cutest thing. Jemma doesn't do that. She carries 3 or 4 pieces in her mouth, goes in another room, eats it and repeats it until she's done

TOO cute

Mine did this as puppies too

Thanks so much for the video. What a riot she is. Calleigh will just take one kibble at a time over to the dining room and go back and forth until she's had her fill. Your pup is having a grand old time. So, so adorable.

I know it is probably just instinct kicking in, but she is absolutely hilarious!!! I'll hear her crunching on her food and then suddenly hear this rabid pitter-patter of her feet as she jumps and twirls around after her food.

I really need to get this on video, but she's so hard to catch at it! As soon as she hears me moving, she quits and comes over to play with me instead.

Lucas is more of a "gobble it down before someone takes it" type eater. Lol

YouTube - Yorkie Playing with her Food

That is so funny. Mia does the same thing but she first eats then she plays with the food that's left over.

Every meal I mix a little Wellness soft food into the kidz kibble. Well sometimes Clarence wants just the soft food so he'll pick out each piece of kibble, lick off the soft food then take it about 2 feet away from his bowl & drop it on the floor...he does this until his bowl is empty & there is a pile of kibble on the floor. Then he goes over to Keegan bowl then Sophies bowl to forage for left overs.
Shoot he's almost 13...maybe a little puppy Altzhimers? Or spoiled rotten...you decide.

All the money you've probably spent on toys, and she gets this much enjoyment from a piece of kibble!!

Isn't this the truth!? Not that she doesn't play with her other toys, but they just don't seem to hold her attention as long as her food does!

I'm really glad you guys are enjoying the video. Sometimes I wonder if Chloe seems so cute just because she's mine! You know...parent syndrome and all.

That is so cute! Samantha never played with her food, but at 6 years she still plays like this with her ball and other toys, nylabones, etc. I still always have to stop and watch her. No one will ever convince me that they don't have imaginations!

Zeus takes his kibble out of his bowl and walks away to eat it too! I guess he isn't alone.

The video is funny! It must take her forever to eat her food and then she probably needs a nap!
