I have a bitch here that about 1/2 the time when fed dry will dump the food on the floor and then pick through it. Fortunately she is smart enough to NOT do that with soaked food....think she is trying to tell me something (like don't feed dry food?).

Only teasing I know what you mean........just trying to lighten things up on the list..............! As for feeding on the floor, you all know, don't you, that on the rare occasions when a litter of puppies decides not to eat the food in their pans, to spill it out on the floor, where they will instantly gobble it all down, thinking they've discovered a new delicacy? (does make you doubt how smart they really are when they do that) I had a client's dog that would do this, I would put the food in a nice bowl, warm water , supplements, and she would stand and look at me....the instant I turned my back the little snot would tip over the bowl and eat it off of the floor....aaaaack...lolol.. I finally got smart and put it in a "calf feeding" bucket (wide , short) and hung it on the fence about 1/2 inch above the floor. She couldn't tip it over, and boy would she scowl at me, lolololol.
