Do Your Yorkies... ...play with their food?? Chloe seems to have so much fun playing with her food before eating it. She will grab a piece of kibble, carry it across the room and then proceed to toss it up in the air just so she can chase it down to pounce on it with a ferocious growl. 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. -C |
Aww thats so cute! peanut use to do that when he was a pup...but now he will just take one little kibble out of his bowl and walk away to eat it lol |
Barley loves to play like this with his food. He really loves to lay about three feet away from his bowl after he's eaten his fill and if anyone walks by he runs over and stands by his bowl like you're going to do something to his bowl. :rolleyes: probably because I put their bowls up 20 minutes after putting them down. I really have to watch my toy poodle's weight and since she's a food stealer there's no free feeding in my house. |

I've had yorkies in the past that have done that but bailey is on wet food... It's the cutest thing to watch, isn't it?! :) |
My two aunt's Malteses' used to do it too ;) Quote:

At least Chloe's not just crazy!! Our toy poodle never did anything like this. Although he would carry a handful (6-8 pieces) of kibble into the living room from the kitchen and eat it there. I don't think he liked being alone to eat! :) At least she always picks up after herself...it might be less cute if she left pieces of food strung out across the floor! And she almost always lays down to eat, even if it is just one piece of food at a time! -C |
Missy is fed homecooked, but she does do the "toss and pounce" game with my pugs kibble sometimes. :D |
Molly does this too!! It's hilarious!! I've read that they bring it to their pack to eat, so maybe that's why the carry it around. I feed her in the bathroom, and she likes for me to throw the kibble along the smooth floor, then when it hits the carpet it pops up. It's the 1, 2, 3 game at our house. I'll start counting, and she'll get down ready to pouce! I throw it on 3. I swear that she can count now! HA! |
Rockie has taken his food out of his bowl and across the room to eat it but l've never seen him do that. That sounds so cute. I'd love to see that.:p |

Okay, I finally caught her at it!! And then she went on for like 15 minutes...I think she realized she was being filmed and started hamming it up!! Enjoy! -C |
Misty, my Yorkie grabs a mouthful of her food and runs under the coffee table. Then she tries to hide it. Then starts all over again. When she finally does eat she goes to each spot and eats a little then goes to the next. I do find kibbles throught out the living at times. |
Beckett does the exact same thing. It's so cute. I watched the video and it was like watching my pup. I wonder where they get this from. |
That is so cute.. |
