<DIV>from our Gotcha Day in october, i have given him 1 cup of kibble in the
morning, 1 at night. he would eat the bfast before i left for work and he
was crated. i come home at lunch, he'd get a little walk, some water, and
a treat and i'd leave. when i got home, he would devour his supper.
ok, normal.</DIV>
<DIV>then, about 2 weeks ago, i decided he didn't need to be crated when i leave
the house. he's never been destructive, he's not a chewer or anything like
that. </DIV>
<DIV>so, now when i leave, his breakfast is out, but he doesn't eat it, he has
his treat, and when i leave he's on his perch guarding the yard and sidewalk
from evil dogs. lol</DIV>
<DIV>but lately, when i come home for lunch, his bfast is still there,
untouched. then, when i'm home for good at night, he eats his bfast.
and tonight, he was hounding me for more food, so i absentmindedly gave him
anaother full cup, instead of a little bit and he ate the whole thing!
this was right after he ate his "breakfast"!</DIV>
<DIV>what gives? any thoughts? it's almost like he doesn't want to
eat until i'm here, but that's weird. he has over an hour in the morning
while i'm here, and he doesn't eat then.</DIV>

<DIV>gus-oh, i'm just lovesick for you, mom, and can't eat without your
beautiful self nearby.</DIV>
<DIV>susan-yeah, sure</DIV></FONT></BODY></HTML>
