question: anyone here have a dog that will carry at least three kibbles from their bowl to the other side of the house, lay down, eat it....
return to their bowl only to repeat the same thing?

it drives me bonkers! why can't she just sit there and eat like my faithful basset hound?
Rigby started picking up a couple bits and running to the front room to eat, rinse, repeat, but I broke her of that habit by feeding her in her kennel and closing the door for a few times. I don't have that problem (with dinner) anymore...just treats now, like pills in cheese.

I think I managed to find a solution to her picky eating...by putting a tablespoon of yogurt in the food to disquise the new food. If she had picked out her food out of that goopey mess, we would have been off to the dog psychologist in a hot minute.

The next meal was a piece of cake after that.
