[Dailydrool] Hunger

[Chyril Sparks]

Looking for some advice on how to deal with some hunger issues.  Olivia, my 12 year old female, is getting me up between 2 and 3 in the morning whinning for food.  All 3 of my Bassets are fed a cup of food in the morning and a cup of food in the evening with some soft food mixed in.  The normal feeding schedule was at 5am and then 5pm unless I am running late from work.  After the time change Olivia has been getting me up early for food.  When she gets up so does the other and I end up feeding everybody.  I have tried feeding them later in the evening and giving them a treat just before going to bed but nothing seems to be helping.  I am open to some suggestions on what to try.  I cannot put 3 Bassets in my full sized bed just to see if I can get one dog to sleep later in the morning so I can be rested for work.  My two 8 year old Bassets, Harley and Annabelle, eat simply because I am up feeding Olivia.  Cassie, the Basset/Beagle mix, just goes
 with the flow.  Look for advice so I can get more sleep.
 
Thanks.
