Could anyone offer some advice on this. I think Prince is 'food guarding' if thats the right name for it.
We have 3 dishes for the dogs, one for water and two for food. I have my own 2 dogs and a foster this week. For the past couple of weeks Prince has been growling and basically hogging the food even when there was one each. He would move back and forth between each dish and growl at Belle if she approached one. He wouldnt be aggressive or anything if I approached and stopped him.
He seems to be at it more this week, there is no shortage of food and their meals are always supervised. What I have been doing now is if he starts to growl and guard the food I have been putting him in the kitchen and feeding him separately. I dont know is this the right thing to do or would anybody have any advice on the best thing to do?
