We fed our dogs in different places. One was a puppy, one was an adult with an ever so slight weight problem. So either they were in their crates, or one was, or one was outside while one was inside....

Feed them separately in crates.

When we had dogs where this was an issue we fed them separately in crates or in separate rooms. Or let one out fed one, let the one that just ate out and fed the other one.

Now my dogs eat the same food an willingly eat from their own bowl in different spots in the same room.

That's why I gave up. They eat the same food and the same amount and the puppy is no longer a bully so I decided I no longer care.

I had this issue with my older cat wanting the kitten food, so I switched to an "all ages" food.

Tbh, as long as they're healthy and not fighting, I have bigger battles to fight. (Such as, who murdered the shower curtain last night?)

that's a big question in my house, too! We often have to rescue the poor shower curtain by flipping it up and over the rod. They haven't clued in yet that they can in fact jump high enough to grab hold of it and yank it back down... shhhh!

Mine were so good! And I'm crazy obsessive with trimming their nails, so imagine my surprise this morning when I go to shower and see a hole wide enough for a cat to jump through.

Oh well, we've recently moved and it was a cheapo curtain anyway. If it becomes a habit, I'll get annoyed. :P

My big question this week was who chewed up my manual breast pump. I suspect it was the puppy.
