Title: More Rookie Pictures
2Goldens - January 31, 2010 11:57 AM (GMT)
Just a few more pictures. Gosh, I've taken soooooo many in the last week. Digital cameras are a wonderful thing !!
The only not so good thing about Rookie being here is that at meal time Spirit has started to gobble down her food. She has always been a slow eater--taking her time and enjoying it--now she is obviously worried Rookie will get it and gobbles it down. I feed them at opposite ends of the room and make sure Rookie doesn't go any where near Spirit's food bowl--but it doesn't seem to help. Any suggestions?

Feed Spirit in a room on her own with the door shut, poor girl had got to enjoy her food!! :laughingsmile She has been such a good sister to Rookie she deserves a bit of peace while she eats!
Beautiful pics, they look so happy together. :hugsmiley

oh I love that first pic, they both look so soft and their coats gleam! Very sweet pics, she is such a cutie!
I totally agree with Sue, give Spirit her own space when she eats so she isn't feeling threatened to gobble it down. I would have a door between them for Spirit's peace of mind.

You could also try putting a ball in Spirit's food bowl with her kibble. It will force her to slow down because she'll have to eat around the ball.
These pictures are so precious!

I have to do that with Alfie, he still eats too fast, but I hope it helps a little.

You might want to try one of these, Sue:

Wonderful pictures! Love seeing them together....With Otto, when he's done eating, we remove him from the room and put up a baby gate. He's learning that the other dishes are off limits.
