Another funny thing that I've noticed about Kona:
I just started switching her to adult food, and she picks out all the pieces of new food and leaves all of her old puppy food behind even if I only put a few pieces of new food in the bowl! She'll ony eat the new pieces, so it doesn't really matter if I try to gradually switch her or not. She did the same thing when I switched brands of puppy food a few months ago. I finally gave up on the gradual switch and just gave her all new food since she wouldn't eat the old pieces anyway. It has never made her sick. I guess I don't have to worry too much about her having a sensitive stomach!

Toto also brings her food to the carpet ... even her moist food!! Yuk! I put her dishes on a towel ... half on kitchen floor and half on carpet ... she still gets some stains on the carpet! She is toooo funny ... if she doesn't want her food, she covers it with the towel!! And to think, we created this angel brat!!!

Pippa does the very same thing-the ole one piece at a time style. One funny thing she does is steal from the cat food. She apparently knows she's not supposed to eat it, because she looks furitively around and snatches a piece and runs like the devil to go hide and eat it. I have to keep the cat food put up until the cat comes in, otherwise she'd snack on it all day and I don't think thats good for them!
